Remove doc from API.txt

Doc parts are not removed from the API completely. This leads to
unnecessary updates to API.txt when the option/argument documentation
is changed.

This patch replaces unreliable doc stripping function with a regular
expression. It works for all current doc strings (simple string or
GetText). The only limitation is that the RE supports only up to
2 levels of nested parentheses in doc string.
