closes #2139

Description

Added entries for the three functions to docs/sphinx/api/languages/cpp_api.rst, along with very minor modifications of two of the relevant header files. Sphinx now generates entries for these functions in the C++ API reference.

For observe and sample, I was unsure about how many overloads should be exposed, both to avoid unnecessary clutter in the docs and also to avoid clashes in Sphinx's name resolution. ATM all overloads (3) of sample() are exposed (this requires sample_options to be exposed, too), whereas for observe() the overloads that either:

  • take a DistributionType template (afaik Doxygen cannot distinguish overloads that only differ in their return type), or
  • take a ArgumentSet parameter (would require exposing this type synonym)

are excluded.

Let me know if you want me to adjust the list of exposed overloads, the ordering of the declarations or any other changes. Happy to modify it as you prefer.

Note: There are further related functions that are not exposed (e.g. their _async counterparts). Let me know if I should raise a further issue about those.
