[v2] Allow title and label for docs in sidebars.js

🚀 Feature

Currently, it only seems possible to specify sidebar_label in a page’s frontmatter. It would be useful to be able to specify a label for type: 'docs' in sidebars.js.

module.exports = {
  docs: [
    {
      type: "category",
      label: "Some Category",
      items: [
        {
          type: "doc",
          id: "doc1",
          label: "First document" // <--- like this
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

My assumption would be that anything specified in sidebars.js would override the frontmatter.

Have you read the Contributing Guidelines on issues?

Yes

Motivation

I have a large set of markdown files that are imported on a regular basis from a separate code repo. It would be nice to avoid having to inject frontmatter into every one of those documents on import in order to get human readable labels on the sidebar.

Pitch

Allow a label attribute on type: 'doc', just like on type: 'category' and type: 'link'.

Nevermind. Search worked. I expected it to be in one of the sidebar item types

@Morriz yes it is, using sidebar_label frontmatter.
