    Drop builtin policy "full" documentation
    
    The full policy documentation was moved to Help/policy/*.rst by commit
    f051814e (Convert builtin help to reStructuredText source files,
    2013-10-15).  We no longer need the builtin string literals.
    
    In commit 87cc62ca (Drop "full" documentation output types, 2013-09-13)
    we dropped code using the LongDescription field of policy definitions.
    We need to follow it up with a change similar to commit 399e9c46 (Drop
    builtin property documentation, 2013-09-16) to remove the policy
    documentation.  Do that now.  Keep the short description as it is used
    in policy error and warning messages.
