Documentation: Disable auto_doc_ref

According to recommonmark's documentation the enable_auto_doc_ref is deprecated.
This is not true, as it's broken with Sphinx 1.6+ commit
12d639873953847de31ec99742b42e50e89ed58c.

recommonmark bug report is here: https://github.com/rtfd/recommonmark/issues/73

Instead of using this feature, which doesn't support top level directories in
the relative document path anyway, use the TOC tree or inline RST code.

Disable auto_doc_ref and document how to reference documents.
