Apologies for the overdue review! Changes look pretty good to me. I left some minor comments
One thing that's sad is dropping the historical .. versionchanged notes :') but not a big problem git still has them.

Closes #5242
Took the time to write a full blown docstring parser to do this. So far I've found it pretty reliable since it caught quite a few missing / malformed docstrings.
One thing I changed: the |tupleclassattrs| and |sequenceclassargs| versionchanged notes were deleted. I did this because they were done for v20.0 and it's been many years since that. That way we can unify the argument and attribute docstring.
I manually checked the docs for most edge cases and confirmed that they are correctly handled. Feel free to build the docs and check a random page's to compare the before and after.
AI assisted disclosure: The tests were >90% written by AI (I looked over all of them, and they were quite satisfactory). It also did some of the parser/insertion logic, which I later fine tuned when I found edge cases / logic errors.
Merge after #5241
