Tim-Philipp Müller 6eb6d9ec38 docs: remove outdated and pointless 'Last reviewed' lines from docs
They are very confusing for people, and more often than not
also just not very accurate. Seeing 'last reviewed: 2005' in
your docs is not very confidence-inspiring. Let's just remove
those comments.

/**
* SECTION:gstpadtemplate
* @short_description: Describe the media type of a pad.
* @see_also: #GstPad, #GstElementFactory
*
* Padtemplates describe the possible media types a pad or an elementfactory can
* handle. This allows for both inspection of handled types before loading the
* element plugin as well as identifying pads on elements that are not yet
* created (request or sometimes pads).
*
* Pad and PadTemplates have #GstCaps attached to it to describe the media type
* they are capable of dealing with. gst_pad_template_get_caps() or
* GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_CAPS() are used to get the caps of a padtemplate. It's not
* possible to modify the caps of a padtemplate after creation.
*
* PadTemplates have a #GstPadPresence property which identifies the lifetime
* of the pad and that can be retrieved with GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_PRESENCE(). Also
* the direction of the pad can be retrieved from the #GstPadTemplate with
* GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_DIRECTION().
*
* The GST_PAD_TEMPLATE_NAME_TEMPLATE () is important for GST_PAD_REQUEST pads
* because it has to be used as the name in the gst_element_get_request_pad()
* call to instantiate a pad from this template.
*
* Padtemplates can be created with gst_pad_template_new() or with
* gst_static_pad_template_get (), which creates a #GstPadTemplate from a
* #GstStaticPadTemplate that can be filled with the
* convenient GST_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE() macro.
*
* A padtemplate can be used to create a pad (see gst_pad_new_from_template()
* or gst_pad_new_from_static_template ()) or to add to an element class
* (see gst_element_class_add_pad_template ()).
*
* The following code example shows the code to create a pad from a padtemplate.
* |[
* GstStaticPadTemplate my_template =
* GST_STATIC_PAD_TEMPLATE (
* "sink", // the name of the pad
* GST_PAD_SINK, // the direction of the pad
* GST_PAD_ALWAYS, // when this pad will be present
* GST_STATIC_CAPS ( // the capabilities of the padtemplate
* "audio/x-raw, "
* "channels = (int) [ 1, 6 ]"
* )
* );
* void
* my_method (void)
* {
* GstPad *pad;
* pad = gst_pad_new_from_static_template (&amp;my_template, "sink");
* ...
* }
* ]|
*
* The following example shows you how to add the padtemplate to an
* element class, this is usually done in the class_init of the class:
* |[
* static void
* my_element_class_init (GstMyElementClass *klass)
* {
* GstElementClass *gstelement_class = GST_ELEMENT_CLASS (klass);
*
* gst_element_class_add_pad_template (gstelement_class,
* gst_static_pad_template_get (&amp;my_template));
* }
* ]|
