pybind11 also appends all members of an enum to the resulting enum docstring.
This default behavior can be disabled by using the ``disable_enum_members_docstring()``
function of the ``options`` class.
With ``disable_user_defined_docstrings()`` all user defined docstrings of
``module_::def()``, ``class_::def()`` and ``enum_()`` are disabled, but the
function signatures and enum members are included in the docstring, unless they
are disabled separately.
Note that changes to the settings affect only function bindings created during the
lifetime of the ``options`` instance. When it goes out of scope at the end of the module's init function,
the default settings are restored to prevent unwanted side effects.
