Replace Sphinx napoleon for numpydoc

[santisoler]

Description:

In https://github.com/fatiando/harmonica/issues/490 I noticed that some attributes that have a trailing underscore (like coefs_ in equivalent sources) are not properly shown in the API reference of the docs.

The issue is coming from the Sphinx plugin we are currently using across the projects to render the docstrings of functions and classes as rst: napoleon. Moreover, it renames Attributes to Variables, which is not ideal.

One way to solve this issue is to move from napoleon to numpydoc. Since we are already making use of the numpydoc style in our docstrings, this replacement seems natural.

I was already experimenting with this, and noticed that the classes would get a duplicated Methods list section. @leouieda suggested that the duplicated one might be coming from the template we have set up for classes. If numpydoc is generating the methods list, we should get rid of it in the template.

Apply to:

• [ ] boule
• [x] harmonica
• [ ] pooch
• [x] verde
• [ ] ensaio
• [x] choclo
• [ ] magali

Probably we don't need numpydoc in Pooch. Numpy is not one of its dependencies and I think we are not facing any issue right now using napoloen in its docs. I think it's safe to remove Pooch from the list.
