Sphinx 5.3.0 to Sphinx 6.2.0 has a bug where nested content in an
ObjectDescription content block has its error position reported
incorrectly due to an oversight when they added nested section support
to this directive.
(This bug is present in Sphinx's own Python and C domains; test it
yourself by creating a py:func directive and creating a syntax error in
the directive's content block. The reporting will be incorrect.)
To avoid overriding and re-implementing the entirety of the run()
method, a workaround is employed where we parse the content block
ourselves in before_content(), then null the content block to make
Sphinx's own parsing a no-op. Then, in transform_content (which occurs
after Sphinx's nested parse), we simply swap our own parsed content tree
back in for Sphinx's.
It appears a little tricky, but it's the nicest solution I can find.
