Description
Bug description
The documentation states that "Constructor parameters can be documented in either the class docstring or the init docstring, but not both.
However, I see that the docstring is only recognized when in the class docstring.
Consider this simple main.py:
"""MyModule"""
class MyClass:
def __init__(self, variable: int) -> None:
"""_summary_
Args:
variable (int): _description_
"""
self.my_variable = variable
def method1(self) -> bool:
"""_summary_"""
return bool(self.my_variable)
def method2(self) -> int:
"""_summary_"""
return 2 if self.my_variable else 1
This will raise a missing-class-docstring error.
If I move the docstring from __init to the Class, it passes.
Also of note, if I put the docstring in both places, I do not get multiple-constructor-doc error.

Expected behavior
I expect to not receive this error when the docstring is in __init__
Also, I expect to receive multiple-constructor-doc if I put the docstring in both places.
