Tim Hoffmann 5871ce266a Add support for short signatures in autosummary (#13172)
This introduces a new ``:signatures:`` option to ``sphinx.ext.autosummary``.
Possible values are:

"long" (*default*):
  same as the current default

"short":
  format functions and classes as ``func()`` if they do not
  have arguments and ``func(…)`` if they do have arguments.

"none":
  replaces the pre-existing ``:nosignatures:`` (which becomes deprecated)

The new functionality here is the "short" option.
This allows to distinguish properties and attributes
from functions and classes without costing a lot of space
for a long signature.

Release 8.2.0 (in development)
==============================
Dependencies
------------
* #13000: Drop Python 3.10 support.
Incompatible changes
--------------------
* #13044: Remove the internal and undocumented ``has_equations`` data
from the :py:class:`!MathDomain`` domain.
The undocumented :py:meth:`!MathDomain.has_equations` method
now unconditionally returns ``True``.
These are replaced by the ``has_maths_elements`` key of the page context dict.
Patch by Adam Turner.
* #13227: HTML output for sequences of keys in the :rst:role:`kbd` role
no longer uses a ``<kbd class="kbd compound">`` element to wrap
the keys and separators, but places them directly in the relevant parent node.
This means that CSS rulesets targeting ``kbd.compound`` or ``.kbd.compound``
will no longer have any effect.
Patch by Adam Turner.
Deprecated
----------
* #13037: Deprecate the ``SingleHTMLBuilder.fix_refuris`` method.

:confval:`javascript_trailing_comma_in_multi_line_signatures`
configuration options.
* #13264: Rename the :rst:dir:`math` directive's ``nowrap``option
to :rst:dir:`no-wrap``,
and rename the :rst:dir:`autosummary` directive's ``nosignatures``option
to :rst:dir:`no-signatures``.
Patch by Adam Turner.
* #13269: Added the option to disable the use of type comments in
via the new :confval:`autodoc_use_type_comments` option,
