In clarifying the detail on when a builder's target can be deduced, it seemed like the concept of a single-source builder should be introduced in this context. So now those builders we know are single-source have that notation in their entry in this section. Also mentions that pseudo-Builders may have a different calling sequence.

A chunk of text about dependencies previously appeared after the listing of builder methods, where it would be hard to spot. Moved up into the text before the listing, and integrate in a bit more smoothly.

A couple of very minor typing things adjusted along the way - mainly using single_source consistently as a bool.

There are no functional changes, so no test impacts.

Contributor Checklist:

  • I have created a new test or updated the unit tests to cover the new/changed functionality.
  • I have updated CHANGES.txt and RELEASE.txt (and read the README.rst).
  • I have updated the appropriate documentation
