A user-facing configuration reference for RDoc covering the four configuration mechanisms (`.rdoc_options`, `RDoc::Task`, `.document`, `RDOCOPT`), a name cheat sheet flagging the nine cross-mechanism naming mismatches, and a grouped options reference with defaults sourced from `RDoc::Options#init_ivars`.
