add a detailed description to wxMenuItem::SetItemLabel() partially moving docs from wxMenu::Append; add usage examples; organize wxMenuItem functions in 3 sections (getters, setters, checkers) to make it easier to browse the docs; use @onlyfor tag where necessary instead of the (Windows only) text

May be @c wxITEM_SEPARATOR, @c wxITEM_NORMAL, @c wxITEM_CHECK or @c wxITEM_RADIO.
Example:
@code
m_pFileMenu->Append(ID_NEW_FILE, "&New file\tCTRL+N", "Creates a new XYZ document");
@endcode
or even better for stock menu items (see wxMenuItem::wxMenuItem):
@code
m_pFileMenu->Append(wxID_NEW, "", "Creates a new XYZ document");
@endcode
@remarks
This command can be used after the menu has been shown, as well as on
initial creation of a menu or menubar.
The item string for the normal menu items (not submenus or separators)
may include the accelerator which can be used to activate the menu item
from keyboard.
The accelerator string follows the item label and is separated from it
by a TAB character ('\\t').
Its general syntax is any combination of "CTRL", "ALT" and "SHIFT" strings
(case doesn't matter) separated by either '-' or '+' characters and followed
by the accelerator itself.
The accelerator may be any alphanumeric character, any function key
(from F1 to F12) or one of the special characters listed in the table
below (again, case doesn't matter):
- DEL or DELETE: Delete key
- INS or INSERT: Insert key
- ENTER or RETURN: Enter key
- PGUP: PageUp key
- PGDN: PageDown key
- LEFT: Left cursor arrow key
- RIGHT: Right cursor arrow key
- UP: Up cursor arrow key
- DOWN: Down cursor arrow key
- HOME: Home key
- END: End key
- SPACE: Space
- TAB: Tab key
- ESC: or ESCAPE Escape key (Windows only)
