doc: improve RyuApp documentation

This includes a small code change; the default value of OFP_VERIONS
was changed to None from the lack of the attribute.  No functional
changes are intended by this.

 ryu.base.app_manager.RyuApp
 ===========================
 
-The base class for Ryu applications.
-
-class attributes
-----------------
-
-A RyuApp subclass can have class attributes with the following special
-names, which are recognized by app_manager.
-
-_CONTEXTS
-`````````
-
-A dictionary to specify contexts which this Ryu application wants to use.
-Its key is a name of context and its value is an ordinary class
-which implements the context.  The class is instantiated by app_manager
-and the instance is shared among RyuApp subclasses which has \_CONTEXTS
-member with the same key.  A RyuApp subclass can obtain a reference to
-the instance via its \_\_init\_\_'s kwargs as the following.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    _CONTEXTS = {
-        'network': network.Network
-    }
-
-    def __init__(self, *args, *kwargs):
-        self.network = kwargs['network']
-
-_EVENTS
-```````
-
-A list of event classes which this RyuApp subclass would generate.
-This should be specified if and only if event classes are defined in
-a different python module from the RyuApp subclass is.
-
-OFP_VERSIONS
-````````````
-
-A list of supported OpenFlow versions for this RyuApp.
-For example:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-    OFP_VERSIONS = [ofproto_v1_0.OFP_VERSION,
-                    ofproto_v1_2.OFP_VERSION]
-
-If multiple Ryu applications are loaded in the system,
-the intersection of their OFP_VERSIONS is used.
-
-instance attributes
--------------------
-
-A RyuApp instance provides the following attributes.
-
-\_\_init\_\_(self, \*args, \*kwargs)
-````````````````````````````````````
-
-RyuApp subclasses are instantiated after ryu-manager loaded
-all requested Ryu application modules.
-\_\_init\_\_ should call RyuApp.__init__ with the same arguments.
-It's illegal to send any events in \_\_init\_\_.
-
-name
-````
-
-The name of the class used for message routing among Ryu applications.
-(Cf. send_event)
-It's set to __class__.__name__ by RyuApp.__init__.
-It's discouraged to override this value.
-
-send_request(self, req)
-```````````````````````
-
-Make a synchronous request.
-Set req.sync to True, send it to a Ryu application specified by req.dst,
-and block until receiving a reply.
-Returns the received reply.
-The argument should be an instance of EventRequestBase.
-
-reply_to_request(self, req, rep)
-`````````````````````
-
-Send a reply for a synchronous request sent by send_request.
-The first argument should be an instance of EventRequestBase.
-The second argument should be an instance of EventReplyBase.
-
-send_event(self, name, ev)
-``````````````````````````
-
-Send the specified event to the RyuApp instance specified by name.
-
-send_event_to_observers(self, ev)
-`````````````````````````````````
-
-Send the specified event to all observers of this RyuApp.
+See :ref:`api_ref`.
