<summary>Changes</summary>

Some of the SB API method description docstrings for swing are annotated as `%feature("autodoc")` - but `"autodoc"` annotations are only to substitute a string showing the arguments and return variables - either in a single line, or in multiple lines. SBMemoryRegionInfo used `"autodoc"` correctly describing the parameters and return type, but then it added a description too which is not correct either.

Change all of these that are adding a method description to use `%feature("docstring")` instead.  There were a half dozen instances where `"autodoc"` was correctly being used and we have overriden the parameter and return types with a more readable version.
