This is a control status property, so move it to the control class. This way, it is hidden from the common motor methods, and DriveBases will be able to use it too.
Now that we have reduced the complexity of the docstrings and after moving the control settings to a separate page, it is no longer necessary to have simplified motor docs.
Previously, we simplified the docs for initializing a motor. This commit also simplifies the docstrings for common motor methods, by leaving out details and optional arguments. Full details are still available on the dedicated motor page.
These can still be viewed on the full Motor class description. But on EV3, these functions are not so relevant as all motors have encoders.
Then we can also remove the encoded/encoderless rubric, further removing clutter.
Instead, show shorter, simpler Motor docs platform-devices pages. For the moment, this just means deleting the advanced methods section from those pages, but we may choose to simplify further.
This change makes it easier to navigate the ev3devices/pupdevices pages because the motor sections aren't overly long.
Details will still be available on the Motor pages for those who wish to use the more advanced motor capabilities such as adjusting the PID settings.
