Small typo/markup fixes.

Remove TODO on documenting Matplotlib in webservers, these entries have
been around since 2008 (ebe6c5f) and it's unlikely they will ever be
written; moreover essentially all the information relevant on
Matplotlib's side (how to plot headlessly) is given just above.

(Probably that information just above will also need updating now that
we automatically switch to Agg on headless setups (by default), but
that's a separate issue...)

PR Summary

PR Checklist

  • Has Pytest style unit tests
  • Code is Flake 8 compliant
  • New features are documented, with examples if plot related
  • Documentation is sphinx and numpydoc compliant
  • Added an entry to doc/users/next_whats_new/ if major new feature (follow instructions in README.rst there)
  • Documented in doc/api/api_changes.rst if API changed in a backward-incompatible way


Alternatively, you can avoid pylab/pyplot altogether, which will give
you a little more control, by calling the API directly as shown in
:doc:`/gallery/user_interfaces/canvasagg`.

You can either generate hardcopy on the filesystem by calling savefig::
You can either generate hardcopy on the filesystem by calling `savefig`::

This does not link because it's ambiguous (Figure/pyplot). Use .Figure.savefig or ~.Figure.savefig.
