Substitute %(prog)s in description and epilog and in subparsers documentation.

Also use plain name of types in substitutions rather than their repr.

Also enable pytest-3, python3 -m pytest, python3 setup.py test et cetera to run the test suite. (Closes #121.)

Would it be possible either to make new tarball release, or publish a version of the patch based on the top of 0.2.5 tarball?

Sure, have a look at: https://github.com/qha/sphinx-argparse/tree/support-prog-in-description-backport

Applied that on the top of 0.2.5 and the result is not very good:

Discussion about the backport branch continues out of band to keep from cluttering this pull request.

[mcepl]

Yes, there was something wrong about the applying of patches. Now fixed.

Thank you @qha , this helps us fix the package for Debian as well.

[qha]

Happy to hear it! (Particularly as i'm a Debian user myself.)

I already have done one, yes (under the same Pypi name). I can't make any changes to anything in this repo sadly though. The original creator has gone unresponsive

I think, it is possible to file a ticket against PyPI (somewhere) and take over inactive account.

@mcepl Yes, I've done that bit 😄 I mean I can't make changes to this git repo (close issues etc)
