Matt BakerandGitHub b7ea511511 Generate API docs from code with sphinx autodoc (#2699)
Expanding on the addition of docstrings in code, this adds python module API docs to sphinx documentation.

A developer can preview what this might look like by running this locally:

```
tox -m docs
```

The option `-W` is added to the tox env so that warning messages are considered errors.

Adds doc generation using the above method to the test GitHub workflow to catch documentation problems on PRs.

Some docstrings have been reformatted and fixed to satisfy errors generated with the above setup.

You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least
contain the root `toctree` directive.
Introduction
============
Patroni is a template for high availability (HA) PostgreSQL solutions using Python. For maximum accessibility, Patroni supports a variety of distributed configuration stores like `ZooKeeper <https://zookeeper.apache.org/>`__, `etcd <https://github.com/coreos/etcd>`__, `Consul <https://github.com/hashicorp/consul>`__ or `Kubernetes <https://kubernetes.io>`__. Database engineers, DBAs, DevOps engineers, and SREs who are looking to quickly deploy HA PostgreSQL in datacenters — or anywhere else — will hopefully find it useful.
We call Patroni a "template" because it is far from being a one-size-fits-all or plug-and-play replication system. It will have its own caveats. Use wisely. There are many ways to run high availability with PostgreSQL; for a list, see the `PostgreSQL Documentation <https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Replication,_Clustering,_and_Connection_Pooling>`__.
Currently supported PostgreSQL versions: 9.3 to 15.
**Note to Citus users**: Starting from 3.0 Patroni nicely integrates with the `Citus <https://github.com/citusdata/citus>`__ database extension to Postgres. Please check the :ref:`Citus support page <citus>` in the Patroni documentation for more info about how to use Patroni high availability together with a Citus distributed cluster.
**Note to Kubernetes users**: Patroni can run natively on top of Kubernetes. Take a look at the :ref:`Kubernetes <kubernetes>` chapter of the Patroni documentation.
