Style: Misc docs and comment style and language fixes
- Removed empty paragraphs in XML.
- Consistently use bold style for "Example:", on a new line.
- Fix usage of `[code]` when hyperlinks could be used (`[member]`, `[constant]`).
- Fix invalid usage of backticks for inline code in BBCode.
- Fix some American/British English spelling inconsistencies.
- Other minor fixes spotted along the way, including typo fixes with codespell.
- Don't specify `@GlobalScope` for `enum` and `constant`.

<brief_description>
Automatically replicates spawnable nodes from the authority to other multiplayer peers.
</brief_description>
<description>
Spawnable scenes can be configured in the editor or through code (see [method add_spawnable_scene]).
Also supports custom node spawns through [method spawn], calling [method _spawn_custom] on all peers.
Internally, [MultiplayerSpawner] uses [method MultiplayerAPI.object_configuration_add] to notify spawns passing the spawned node as the [code]object[/code] and itself as the [code]configuration[/code], and [method MultiplayerAPI.object_configuration_remove] to notify despawns in a similar way.

<methods>
<method name="_spawn_custom" qualifiers="virtual">
<return type="Node" />
<param index="0" name="data" type="Variant" />
<description>
Method called on all peers when a custom spawn was requested by the authority using [method spawn]. Should return a [Node] that is not in the scene tree.
[b]Note:[/b] Spawned nodes should [b]not[/b] be added to the scene with [method Node.add_child]. This is done automatically.
</description>
</method>
<method name="add_spawnable_scene">
<return type="void" />
<param index="0" name="path" type="String" />
<description>
Adds a scene path to spawnable scenes, making it automatically replicated from the multiplayer authority to other peers when added as children of the node pointed by [member spawn_path].
</description>
</method>
<method name="clear_spawnable_scenes">
<return type="void" />
<description>
Clears all spawnable scenes. Does not despawn existing instances on remote peers.
</description>
</method>
<method name="get_spawnable_scene" qualifiers="const">
<return type="String" />
<param index="0" name="index" type="int" />
<description>
Returns the spawnable scene path by index.
</description>
</method>
<method name="get_spawnable_scene_count" qualifiers="const">
<return type="int" />
<description>
Returns the count of spawnable scene paths.
</description>
</method>
<method name="spawn">
<return type="Node" />
<param index="0" name="data" type="Variant" default="null" />
<description>
Requests a custom spawn, with [code]data[/code] passed to [method _spawn_custom] on all peers. Returns the locally spawned node instance already inside the scene tree, and added as a child of the node pointed by [member spawn_path].
[b]Note:[/b] Spawnable scenes are spawned automatically. [method spawn] is only needed for custom spawns.

<members>
<member name="spawn_limit" type="int" setter="set_spawn_limit" getter="get_spawn_limit" default="0">
Maximum nodes that is allowed to be spawned by this spawner. Includes both spawnable scenes and custom spawns.
When set to [code]0[/code] (the default), there is no limit.
</member>
<member name="spawn_path" type="NodePath" setter="set_spawn_path" getter="get_spawn_path" default="NodePath(&quot;&quot;)">
Path to the spawn root. Spawnable scenes that are added as direct children are replicated to other peers.
