Improve module documentation and doc cleanup.
This adds lots of config module documentation in a standard format. It will greatly improve the content at readthedocs. Additionally: * Add a 'doc' env to tox.ini * Changed default highlight language for sphinx conf from python to yaml most examples in documentation are yaml configs * Updated datasource examples to highlight sh code properly
