Ichthyostega 555af315b3 Upgrade: improve Doxygen parameters and treat some warnings
- remove obsolete configuration settings
- walk through all settings according to the documentation
  https://www.doxygen.nl/manual/config.html
- now try to use the new feature to rely on Clang for C++ parsing
- walk through the doxygen-warnings.txt and fix some obvious misspellings
  and structural problems in the documentation comments.

With Debian-Trixie, we are now using Doxygen 1.9.8 —
which produces massively better results in various fine points.

However, there are still problems with automatic cross links,
especially from implementation to the corresponding test classes.

/** @file time.h
** Common functions for handling of time values.
** Working with time values in sexagesimal format, quantising time and converting
** to/from common timecode formats can be tricky to get right. Thus the goal is
** to concentrate the actual bits of math for these operations into a small number
** of library functions, which are easy to test thoroughly in isolation.
**
** Built on top of that, the actual time handling in the GUI and within the Lumiera
** session is mostly confined to use the opaque lib::time::Time wrapper objects.
** When time values actually need to be _quantised_ (aligned to a frame grid),
** this is expressed at the API through using the lib::time::QuTime type, which
** then in turn can be materialised into a number of _timecode formats_.
** These definitions ensure that whenever an actual quantisation (rounding)
** operation is performed, the link to the appropriate time grid is available,
** so that multiple output or rendering operations can use differing time origins
** and frame rates simultaneously on the same model.
**
** The Lumiera Vault Layer functions mostly operate on raw frame counts, which in
** this model are defined to be a special kind of timecode, and thus dependent on
** a preceding time quantisation.
