I think that there's the word "for" missing for that sentence to be correct.
Please double-check that the sentence means what it's supposed to mean. :-)

- PYBIND11_MAKE_OPAQUE now takes ... rather than a single argument and
  expands it with __VA_ARGS__; this lets templated, comma-containing
  types get through correctly.
- Adds a new macro PYBIND11_TYPE() that lets you pass the type into a
  macro as a single argument, such as:

      PYBIND11_OVERLOAD(PYBIND11_TYPE(R<1,2>), PYBIND11_TYPE(C<3,4>), func)

  Unfortunately this only works for one macro call: to forward the
  argument on to the next macro call (without the processor breaking it
  up again) requires also adding the PYBIND11_TYPE(...) to type macro
  arguments in the PYBIND11_OVERLOAD_... macro chain.
- updated the documentation with these two changes, and use them at a couple
  places in the test suite to test that they work.

None of the three currently recommended approaches works on PyPy, due to
it not garbage collecting things when you want it to. Added a note with
example showing how to get interpreter shutdown callbacks using the Python
atexit module.

This updates the compilation to always apply hidden visibility to
resolve the issues with default visibility causing problems under debug
compilations.  Moreover using the cmake property makes it easier for a
caller to override if absolutely needed for some reason.

For `pybind11_add_module` we use cmake to set the property; for the
targets, we append to compilation option to non-MSVC compilers.

This commit also adds `doc()` to `object_api` as a shortcut for the
`attr("__doc__")` accessor.

The module macro changes from:
```c++
PYBIND11_PLUGIN(example) {
    pybind11::module m("example", "pybind11 example plugin");
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
    return m.ptr();
}
```

to:

```c++
PYBIND11_MODULE(example, m) {
    m.doc() = "pybind11 example plugin";
    m.def("add", [](int a, int b) { return a + b; });
}
```

Using the old macro results in a deprecation warning. The warning
actually points to the `pybind11_init` function (since attributes
don't bind to macros), but the message should be quite clear:
"PYBIND11_PLUGIN is deprecated, use PYBIND11_MODULE".

```c++
m.def("foo", foo, py::call_guard<T>());
```

is equivalent to:

```c++
m.def("foo", [](args...) {
    T scope_guard;
    return foo(args...); // forwarded arguments
});
```

* nicer py::capsule destructor mechanism
* added destructor-only version of capsule & tests
* added documentation for module destructors (fixes #733)

Added the docstring_options class, which gives global control over the generation of docstrings and function signatures.
