Description

refactor

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In v1.1.0, we may or may not need the docstring for inheritance anymore. Please revisit the idea whether we need it. Probably it may be only applied for Estimators

Describe the solution you'd like
Revisit classes such as Forecaster, Estimator, Template etc. Consider removing dependency of custom docstring package.
