[M3devel] "types" directory confusion

The documentation is wrong about the location of the type-describing interfaces
for instantiating generics, and they are inconsistent and incomplete in their
locations.
For example, the page cm3/doc/help/gen_html/libm3/src/types/Refany.i3.html claims
to describe an interface located in cm3/m3-libs/libm3/src/types, but this file is
actually located in cm3/m3-libs/m3core/src/types. Of these kinds of interfaces,
only RealType.i3 and LongrealType.i3 are in libm3. Most/all of the rest are in
m3core. I don't see an ExtendedType.i3 at all.
(There are a bunch of interfaces concerning floating types, including Extended, but
they contain different information. None appear to be for instantiating e.g, Table.)
Do we want to consistify this? I seem to remember that there once were copies
of at least some of these in both m3core/src/types and libm3/src/types.
Also, does anybody know what the procedure is for regenerating the html
documentation files?
