Code documentation accidentally escapes HTML-encoded characters

[lvkv]

Many, if not all of the HTML-encoded characters like > (AKA >) and < (<) in the MIP SDK class reference Markdown are incorrectly escaped. This leads to hundreds of difficult-to-read entries when templates are involved. For example, this confusing thing:

public std::vector<std::pair<std::string, std::string>> GetProperties(uint32_t version)

should actually be rendered like this:

public std::vector<std::pair<std::string, std::string>> GetProperties(uint32_t version)

This is probably because whatever tool you're using to sync documentation is mistakenly escaping these sequences with a backslash (\) instead of leaving them alone:

public std::vector\<std::pair\<std::string, std::string\>\> GetProperties(uint32_t version)

This affects at least all Markdown under mip/develop/reference/. It could be more widespread, but I haven't looked. Can we get this fixed?
