DOC/API : removed documented input constraint

tacaswell · tacaswell · commit 8d5fb93b52c5 · 2015-01-18T13:07:11.000-05:00
The docs on Path._fast_from_codes_and_verts said that `codes`
can not be None, however the code does not check this and everyplace
that `Path` uses `self._codes` it first verifies that the value is
not `None` and `None` is a valid value to be passed to the Path `__init__`
which falls through with the `_codes` attribute being `None`.
