Comment categories will allow better comment organization in HTML.
Before, comments would just be serialized in whatever order they were
written, so groups like params or notes wouldn't be in the same
sections.

Subject: [PATCH] [clang-doc] separate comments into categories

Comment categories will allow better comment organization in HTML.
Before, comments would just be serialized in whatever order they were
written, so groups like params or notes wouldn't be in the same
sections.
