Autogsdoc and wiki syntax

The class documentation should have simpler syntax than XML. For example a wiki-like syntax, where references would be enclosed in [[ and ]] for the ObjectiveC message sends, one should prefix the first [ by a backslash. Like: \[[alloc] init].

Italics should be marked by ''italics'', bold by '''bold''' (mediawiki) or by __bold__ (phpwiki)

The references should be: [[Class:class_name]], [[Method:Class:methodName:]], [[ivar:ivarname]]

XML is a bit complicated for such simple task as documentation.
