Since this feature is buggy, and there isn't an easy fix, we should probably remove any mention of it from the docs.  We can still leave it as an undocumented legacy feature.

There is precedent for leaving `nargs` constants undocumented.  `argparse.PARSER` ('+...') is used by the subparser mechanism, but is not documented.  https://bugs.python.org/issue16988
