release_35 patches for unroll pragma

Sorry, forgot about this :-(  Here's the patched to release_35 which
removes reference to unroll-related pragmas and the respective metadata as
discussed earlier in the thread.  These are doc-only (*.rst) patches.  OK?

Bill, can these be merged to the release branch?  Background: 3.5 was cut
in the middle of a number of changes to support the unroll pragma.  Since
the cut, the metadata and unroll pragma syntax have changed and a couple of
small bug fixes went in.  These doc patches remove any reference to the
unroll pragma and metadata so we don't have to carry forward support for
the older syntax.  Also, this avoid publicizing the unroll pragmas which at
the time of the cut had a couple of unpatched bugs.

Thanks!
Mark
