Omit unnecessary \ before paren in C docstrings
Although \( is needed in docstrings in Elisp code, it is not needed in docstrings in C code, since C function definitiions do not start with a parenthesis. The backslashes made the docstrings a bit harder to read and to format in columns. Also, some C docstrings had ( in column 1 and this did not appear to be causing any problems. So, simplify C docstrings by replacing \( with ( and \) with ).
