[DOC,MNT] Documentation configuration clean-up

[MatthewMiddlehurst]

• Fixes changelog and docstring typos
• Adds GSoC mentees to the funding section
• Tidies up the conf.py into sections and removes some useless attributes (from removed/deprecated extensions). Adds more comments such as where the config option is from and what they do
• Removes the manual and Latex configuration. I dont think anyone uses this and it can be easily added back. It seems like clutter in an already difficult to understand file for newcomers
• Add option to show which classes an estimator inherits in the API

Old:

New:

• Adds config to remove some useless functions we inherit from the API page i.e. get_metadata_routing used by scikit-learn

Old:

New:

• Moves the binder badge from the top of examples to the bottom

This may come with some unintended side effects. Keep an eye out, but from what I checked there is nothing off.
