Purpose
Explains how to translate import aliases used in docstring type definitions with
napoleon_preprocess_typesandnapoleon_type_aliases. This adds annp.ndarrayexample and clarifies that Napoleon cannot infer module imports from docstring text.The long-running discussion on #10151 attracted several affected users and proposed workarounds, indicating to me that the existing configuration was difficult to discover.
