[Doc]: Improve API documentation of attributes #22897

Problem

We currently have to resort to literals, instead of links

  • ax.transAxes / transAxes
  • ax.dataLim
  • ax.fmt_xdata / ax.fmt_ydata / ax.fmt_zdata
  • Axes.lines
  • axes.bbox
  • figure.bbox
  • cbar_axes

Suggested improvement

We should have API documentation for this, and it should be referencable in sphinx.

What needs to be done:
Figure out how this could be done. Note that some attributes are documented, but cannot be referenced (e.g. dataLim https://matplotlib.org/devdocs/api/axes_api.html#the-axes-class), while others don't have a documentation at all.
