Description

See: https://github.com/ni/nimi-python/pull/749#discussion_r169820152

The problem is that documentation in extracted metadata references the driver's CHM files. They should reference our own documentation in readthedocs or maybe the online documentation on ni.com. Or at the very least remove the link.

Research direction

Start with the extracted metadata that produces documentation links and review the discussion in pull request 749 for the CHM-link context. Trace where those references are generated, then verify that the resulting documentation points to Read the Docs or ni.com, or contains no link to the driver CHM files.
