Most important change here is to point people to the YAML material in
the docs rather than the previous way we indicated versions that
introduced or deprecated APIs.

Otherwise, a bunch of stylistic changes, mostly to keep things concise
and direct.

* When using dashes, use [Em dashes][] ("—" or `Option+Shift+"-"` on macOS)
surrounded by spaces, as per [The New York Times Manual of Style and Usage][].
* When documenting APIs, update the YAML comment associated with the API as
appropriate. This is especially true when introducing or deprecating an API.

AFAIK we have no documentation on the YAML comments, so it's guesswork based on the existing YAML comments as to what should go in there when introducing a new API. Kind of falls under the general: #25548

I suppose at least this is an improvement because it actually mentions the YAML comments.

Remove contents about assets as we do not actually have any in the docs.
