It is. SVN:Core::uri_canonicalize();

_Core is the raw SWIG wrapped interfaces.
Core cuts out extraneous bits of the symbols and in many cases provide a lot of
help to make things behave in a more Perl like manner (in this case it's just a
thin wrapper).

In general if it's a in libsvn_subr then it's in SVN:Core with the svn_ prefix
dropped.

While your statement isn't entirely untrue, the link is about the Python
bindings. The Perl bindings have some documentation, far more than the Python
bindings. But could certainly use more and of course patches would be welcome.
