Simplifies rule by ensuring that we do use the docstring as their short description. This also enables us to address most pylint no-class-docstring excludes.
That is an alternative to another linked PR I made yesterday where I tried to put the description in a docstring, but that proved to cause several problems related to formatting
of docstrings with rst. This approach is simple and without undesired effects.
