Reduce unnecessary external state assignment (singleton) (ruby#1312)

It really bugs me that RDoc has a tendency of assigning a state through
a setter immediately after the object's initialization. This makes the
dependencies unclear and code unnecessarily verbose.

I'm taking a first step to fix the pattern by passing `singleton` as a
constructor argument whenever possible.
