Re-factor extension docs generation code. Now support referenced types and type links.
The generation code is now more jstemplaty: Uses callouts from the template rather than preprocessing the pageData. Also uses internal subtemplates via transclude which reduces the size of the template significantly. Also, api pages now have a Types, and all references to types link to the appropriate api doc page which contains it.
