Title: Doc multi version master

This is #1067 rebased against master. There shouldn't be too much to vet here, except for @pelson's benefit to see how the changes to `boilerplate.py` were handled.

There was no need to generate a colormap list in this case, since master already has a correct and autogenerated list of colormaps thanks to the work by @endolith.

It was not possible to generate the `plotting` docstring in `boilerplate.py`, since `boilerplate.py` doesn't know about any of the hard-coded functions in `pyplot.py` (`gca`, `gcf` etc.) -- ideally at some point all that stuff should probably be cleaned up, but this is working for now.
