Improve documentation with direct use of MkDocs

Improvements:

- Only the public API is documented
  - Thanks to `mkdocstrings` with `show_submodules: no`.
- Function parameter documentation is parsed and shown in tables.
- `None` paragraphs are removed.
  - This was reported at timothycrosley/pdocs#25
    but hasn't been merged.
- Footer layout is fixed.
  - It's currently broken with Portray, even on their own documentation
    (https://timothycrosley.github.io/portray/).

Portray is great but I think we can do better by directly using MkDocs.
