Frank Mori Hess 615b2980cf Fixed problems with classname elements producing links to classes
in old Boost.Signals when I meant them to link to Boost.Signals2
classes.  Removed deprecated stuff from documentation and updated
wrt to changes made for the sake of the variadic template
implementation.  Added section on changes to interface which will
appear in 1.40.

<title>hello_world_slot</title>
<para>
This example is a basic example of connecting a slot to a signal
and then invoking the signal.

This example extends the hello_world_slot example slightly by connecting more than one
slot to the signal before invoking it.

using slot groups to specify
the order slots should be invoked.

<section id="signals2.examples.tutorial.signal_return_value">
<title>signal_return_value</title>
<para>
This example shows how to return a value from slots to the signal invocation.
It uses the default <classname>optional_last_value</classname> combiner.

<para>
This example shows more returning of values from slots to the signal invocation.
This time, custom combiners are defined and used.

<title>extended_slot</title>
<para>
This example demonstrates connecting an extended slot to a signal. An extended slot
accepts a reference to its invoking signal-slot connection as an additional argument,
permitting the slot to temporarily block or permanently disconnect itself.
