It's possible that the "comment AST" may be replaced or split out in the
midterm, any anyway this makes the headers easier to read.
Developers don't currently need to include "clang-c/Documentation.h" explicitly
and there's no macro to test for availability yet.
The raw comment and brief comment accessors have been kept in Index.h though
brief support may also move here as a separate proposal.
This is not a deprecation, just a gentle separation of concerns as we look to
simplify the built-in representation of comment nodes and support external
comment processors.

Now we have a list of all commands. This is a good thing in itself, but it
also enables us to easily implement typo correction for command names.
With this change we have objects that contain information about each command,
so it makes sense to resolve command name just once during lexing (currently we
store command names as strings and do a linear search every time some property
value is needed). Thus comment token and AST nodes were changed to contain a
command ID -- index into a tables of builtin and registered commands. Unknown
commands are registered during parsing and thus are also uniformly assigned an
ID. Using an ID instead of a StringRef is also a nice memory optimization
since ID is a small integer that fits into a common bitfield in Comment class.
This change implies that to get any information about a command (even a command
name) we need a CommandTraits object to resolve the command ID to CommandInfo*.
Currently a fresh temporary CommandTraits object is created whenever it is
needed since it does not have any state. But with this change it has state --
new commands can be registered, so a CommandTraits object was added to
ASTContext.
Also, in libclang CXComment has to be expanded to include a CXTranslationUnit
so that all functions working on comment AST nodes can get a CommandTraits
object. This breaks binary compatibility of CXComment APIs.
Now clang_FullComment_getAsXML(CXTranslationUnit TU, CXComment CXC) doesn't
need TU parameter anymore, so it was removed. This is a source-incompatible
change for this C API.

HTML fragment.
For testing, c-index-test now has even more output:
* HTML rendering of a comment
* comment AST tree dump in S-expressions like Comment::dump(), but implemented
* with libclang APIs.
