# Description

Currently, our resource API docs for Python only display a type name
itself. If the type is defined in a different module, we do not indicate
this explicitly, which causes confusion.

For example, [K8s Pod
Inputs](https://www.pulumi.com/registry/packages/kubernetes/api-docs/core/v1/pod/#inputs)
is in `core.v1` module itself but refer to the `meta.v1.ObjectMeta`
type. Node.js docs display the type as

but Python simply shows

The same problem exists when we reference types from external packages,
and even for composed types like `Sequence[some_external_type]`.

This PR removes a special case for Python that reduces a full type name
to its name. Instead, it executes on the same path as Node.js and C#.

I had to apply some cleaning to Python types to remove underscore
prefixes of modules. We use underscore-prefixed imports in SDK gen, but
they should not be visible in user docs.

I expect we need to apply the same fix to Go, but I suggest we do that
as a follow-up.

Testing: the existing test suite seems adequate for testing the change.
All the discrepancies look like improvements to me.

Fixes #15137
