This changeset adds a Sphinx extension for auto-generating much of the documentation for a Pecan/WSME API from the comments and docstrings in the source code. It also updates the V2 API to include more documentation for API endpoints and the data types used in the API, as well as sample data for generating the JSON and XML examples in the output documentation.
