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 util-tuple.hpp
** Some small helpers and convenience shortcuts to simplify working with
** tuples and sequences (given by iterator). While tuples and sequences
** are fundamentally different insofar a tuple has a fixed structure (and
** may hold elements of different type), sometimes it can be convenient to
** treat a tuple like a sequence (especially a tuple holding elements of a
** single type. Notably, an iterator can be unloaded into a fixed-size tuple,
** which in turn can than be used in a structural binding to unpack references
** to the elements into scoped variables. Obviously, the meaning of the elements
** in the sequence must be fixed and predetermined -- which is often the case
** when dealing with tests or communication protocols.
**
** @see util-tuple-test.cpp
** @see util-coll.hpp

* iterator exposes a reference to mutable internal state (e.g. "state core").
* Moreover, it is assumed the iterator yields enough values to fill the new
* tuple, and this is not checked; an empty or exhausted iterator might throw,
