star polymer typo in docs — at Initial Version

Description

Simple fix, but I cannot build the docs at present on windows, see #956, and needs new branch for minor changes to docs. So I am putting in this ticket to remind us to do it.

==========================================
Dear Ziang,
I am not sure if anyone has replied to you previously, if not then apologies we usually respond very quickly.
Thank you for pointing out the typo in the star polymer model documentation. It seems that I was the last person to check this model, so the team can blame me for not noticing. The correction to this will take some while to filter down into a release version of sasview. Personally I would also like to change the fitting parameter in the model from (Rg)2 to just Rg (see #552 ) which would be more logical, but there is some history here.
Thank you again,
Richard Heenan

Subject: [Sasview-help] SASView starpolymer model fit typo

Dear Sir/Madam?:

I'm a graduate student from the university of Minnesota and have been using the SASView software for my SAXS data fitting.

I found a typo in the "help" section of the star polymer model (shape-independent), I think v should equal to u*f/(3f-2) instead of u2*f/(3f-2) since u is already defined as u=q2*Rg2 in the line below. I think it's just a typo in the "help" but it might be worth checking if the code is built according to correct form factor. Thank you!

Best,
Ziang
