Add missing docstrings and examples to utility and tokenization functions

[Copilot]

What does this changes

Adds complete documentation to 13 public functions that were either missing docstrings entirely or lacking usage examples.

Functions with new complete docstrings:

• indices_words() - converts word list to character index pairs
• map_indices_to_words() - maps index pairs to words from sentences
• Trie class - Trie data structure for efficient prefix-based word search

Functions with new examples:

• syllable_tokenize() - syllable segmentation with engine options
• Tokenizer.word_tokenize() - basic tokenizer usage
• Tokenizer.set_tokenize_engine() - changing tokenization engine
• convert_years() - calendar conversions (BE/AD/RE/AH)
• digit_to_text() - digit-to-Thai-text conversion
• reorder_vowels() - vowel and tone mark reordering
• remove_zw() - zero-width character removal
• remove_repeat_vowels() - repeated vowel removal
• th_zodiac() - Thai zodiac year name conversion
• to_lunar_date() - solar to Thai lunar date conversion

All examples follow existing Sphinx reST conventions with :Example:: sections and working code snippets.

What was wrong

Several public API functions lacked docstrings or examples, making them difficult to discover and use without reading source code. Sphinx autodoc generates incomplete API documentation for these functions.

How this fixes it

Adds comprehensive docstrings with:

• Parameter descriptions and type hints
• Return value documentation
• Working code examples that demonstrate typical usage
• Consistent formatting matching existing documentation patterns

Examples:

from pythainlp.tokenize import syllable_tokenize
syllable_tokenize("สวัสดีครับ", engine="dict")
# output: ['สวัส', 'ดี', 'ครับ']

from pythainlp.util import convert_years
convert_years("2566", src="be", target="ad")
# output: '2023'

from pythainlp.util import Trie
trie = Trie(['สวัสดี', 'สวัส', 'ดี'])
trie.prefixes('สวัสดีครับ')
# output: ['สวัส', 'สวัสดี']

@copilot Here are api that still missing usage examples:

• pythainlp.util.reorder_vowels
• pythainlp.util.remove_zw
  ...

Added usage examples to all requested functions in commit f6225a5:

• reorder_vowels - Shows Sara E transformation and tone mark reordering
• remove_zw - Demonstrates zero-width character removal
• remove_repeat_vowels - Shows vowel deduplication
• th_zodiac - Examples with Thai, English, and numeric output types
• to_lunar_date - Shows solar to Thai lunar date conversion
• Trie - Added complete class docstring with examples for common operations (contains check, prefixes, add, len)

All examples follow the project's Sphinx reST format and have been tested.
