Pairs with lightpanda-io/lightpanda-python#13, for item 2 of lightpanda-io/lightpanda-python#6.

CONVENTIONS and CLASS_NOTES described how Session's methods are called — keyword-only, snake_case, selector over backend_node_id, call as the escape hatch, ToolError on failure — from a repository that cannot import the package and so cannot tell whether any of it is still true. The package now says it in the Session docstring, which this script already renders.

No rendering is lost. The docstring's :meth: roles come out of pdoc.docstrings.convert as code spans, and render_prose links them against the same symbol table, producing exactly the anchors the hardcoded strings spelled out by hand:

[`call()`](#session-call)   [`tree()`](#session-tree)   [`find_element()`](#session-find-element)

What changes on the page is placement: the two convention paragraphs move from above the class list into the Session section, next to the class they constrain, and AsyncSession gains a line pointing back at it.

src/content/reference/python.mdx is deliberately not touched here — the daily python-reference workflow regenerates and pushes it, and it will pick this up on its next run once #13 is merged. Verified locally against that branch.

`CONVENTIONS` and `CLASS_NOTES` carried prose about how Session's methods
are called, with hand-written anchors, in a repository that cannot see
whether the package still works that way. lightpanda-python now says it
in the Session docstring, which this script already renders -- and its
`:meth:` roles resolve to the same anchors the hardcoded links spelled
out, so the page reads as before.

The paragraphs move from above the class list into the Session section,
where they apply.

Part of lightpanda-io/lightpanda-python#6.
