The ``autodoc_skip_member`` event now also gets to decide

whether to skip members whose name starts with underscores.
Previously, these members were always automatically skipped.
Therefore, if you handle this event, add something like this
to your event handler to restore the old behavior::

   if name.startswith('_'):
       return True
