orientor 817ee5c6b2 openapi_docs: Replace argument with parameter.
The term `parameter` is a better word than `argument` for data passed
to an API endpoint; this is why OpenAPI uses in their terminology.
Replace `argument` with `parameter` in the API docs to improve their
readability.

Fixes #15435.
