Subject: [PATCH] Fix doc build

Attempt to fix doc build failure introduced with #25272.

I suspect this is sphinx scoping: #25272 reused methods
like `Axes.set_xbounds` to generate documentation for Axes3D. However,
a see also of invert_xaxis only searches within the same module (or
class), and invert_xaxis is not documented for Axes3D. This PR broadens
the search scope by using the leading dot. An alternative may be to
attempt to explicitly document the missing methods for Axes3D.
