Docstring not picked up when using typing.overload

[joelberkeley-secondmind]

When I use typing.overload on a method, I don't get any documentation for that method, presumably because the first variant of that method is empty this is slightly incorrect - see comment below

If I move the docstring to the first overloaded variant (or copy it to all the variants), it builds the docstring, but it shows the type signature of only the first variant whereas it should show all of them

I'm using

should be

When I use typing.overload on a method, and document the implementation of the method (rather than the type-hinted stub variants), I see the function signature of the first variant, but no docstring content, presumably because the first variant of that method is empty
