[docs] [issue11976] Provide proper documentation for list data type

[Jonas H.]

New submission from Jonas H. <jonas at lophus.org>:

Provide a proper `list` method reference (like the one for `dict`, http://docs.python.org/library/stdtypes.html#dict).

Right now, documentation about lists is spread over multiple topics (.rst files) and methods are documented in footnotes.

Also, intersphinx-ing and list methods is not possible -- :meth:`list.foo` does not create any links due to missing documentation. This is also related to #11975.
