Title: Misc doc changes

The diffs are fairly long, but hopefully non controversial. In summary, I have:

* Fixed some typos
* Removed a couple of over zealous newlines
* Fixed a couple of example bugs
* Fixed a couple of sphinx warnings
* Replaced some of the one line docstrings from ```'Hello world'``` to ```"""Hello world"""``` to make it feel more docstringy.
* Fixed some broken links (did you know about ```sphinx\-build -b linkcheck ./ build/lchk```?)
* There are some dead links lingering:

```
devel/release_guide
http://matplotlib.sf.net/release-candidates BROKEN

api/pyplot_api
http://matplotlib.sf.net/fonts.html

api/dates_api
https://moin.conectiva.com.br/DateUtil
```

On the whole, I have not gone through all files (knowhere near), nor do I claim to have even got all of the issues in the files I have looked at, but hopefully what I have done is make a start.
