lib: standardise attrset type syntax

There are a number of different syntaxes used for attrset type
signatures in our doc strings, this change standardises upon one that
uses :: for specifying attribute type, and ; terminators to be
consistent with nix syntax. There are no bugs in the functions
themselves, just that different syntaxes may confuse new users.
