Doctool: Remove version attribute from XML header
We don't use that info for anything, and it generates unnecessary diffs
every time we bump the minor version (and CI failures if we forget to
sync some files from opt-in modules (mono, text_server_fb).

<brief_description>
A 3D axis-aligned bounding box.

<description>
[AABB] consists of a position, a size, and several utility functions. It is typically used for fast overlap tests.
It uses floating-point coordinates. The 2D counterpart to [AABB] is [Rect2].
Negative values for [member size] are not supported and will not work for most methods. Use [method abs] to get an AABB with a positive size.
[b]Note:[/b] Unlike [Rect2], [AABB] does not have a variant that uses integer coordinates.
