Sphinx does not follow paths for class aliases for parameter types

[mattsb42-aws]

Problem

Even though Algorithm is an alias for AlgorithmSuite, it looks like the sphinx module that generates code links for parameter types doesn't realize that and just treats it as an unknown class.

ex:

render:

https://aws-encryption-sdk-python.readthedocs.io/en/latest/generated/aws_encryption_sdk.html#aws_encryption_sdk.encrypt

src:

https://github.com/aws/aws-encryption-sdk-python/blob/master/src/aws_encryption_sdk/__init__.py#L72-L73

Solution

Replace parameter type references with AlgorithmSuite.
