Update documentation on pd.read_excel, to reflect the fact that support for OpenDocument files is available

[marcelonp]

class ExcelFile:
    """
    Class for parsing tabular excel sheets into DataFrame objects.
    Uses xlrd. See read_excel for more documentation

    Parameters
    ----------
    io : string, path object (pathlib.Path or py._path.local.LocalPath),
        file-like object or xlrd workbook
        If a string or path object, expected to be a path to xls or xlsx file.
    engine : string, default None
        If io is not a buffer or path, this must be set to identify io.
        Acceptable values are None or ``xlrd``.
    """

    from pandas.io.excel._odfreader import _ODFReader
    from pandas.io.excel._openpyxl import _OpenpyxlReader
    from pandas.io.excel._xlrd import _XlrdReader

    _engines = {"xlrd": _XlrdReader, "openpyxl": _OpenpyxlReader, "odf": _ODFReader}

Problem description

I was searching for support for reading .ods files, and upon reading the documentation for read_excel and IO related functions, I found nothing.

When I was about to search for another library, I discovered that support had already been added to the read_excel function (as of #2311), but the docs weren't updated, either in ExcelFile, or in the read_excel function, and as suggested when creating the issue https://pandas-docs.github.io/pandas-docs-travis/ also wasn't. I also didn't find any related issue regarding this.

I might be missing something, since it is my first issue, sorry about that if it's the case.

I'd suggest even something along the lines of:

    Parameters
    ----------
    io : string, path object (pathlib.Path or py._path.local.LocalPath),
        file-like object or xlrd workbook
        If a string or path object, expected to be a path to xls or xlsx file.
    engine : string, default None
        If io is not a buffer or path, this must be set to identify io.
        Acceptable values are None, ``xlrd``, ``openpyxl`` or ``odf``.
        Note that ``odf`` reads tables out of OpenDocument formatted files.
    """

for both ExcelFile and read_excel. That would make visible that support for other engines is available.

Thanks.

Makes sense - would certainly take a PR if you'd like to try one
