These docs were previously missing.

Fixes: #203322

-- ai disclosure

I pointed claude at the docs located at `clang/docs/OverflowBehaviorTypes.rst` 
and told him to populate `AttrDocs.td` with a new entry. I read them over and 
they look good to me (considering most entries in AttrDocs aren't typically as 
descriptive as their formal documentation elsewhere).

To further check the ai, I built the html docs and opened them up in firefox 
and they look good to me (hyperlink works, etc).

Subject: [PATCH] [Clang] Add AttrDocs entry for OverflowBehavior

These docs were previously missing. Basically just add what was in the
formal docs here.

Fixes: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/203322

+The ``overflow_behavior`` attribute provides fine-grained, type-level control
+over how arithmetic operations on an integer type behave on overflow. It may be
+applied to a ``typedef``, to a variable or data member, or to an integer type
+directly, and accepts one of two behaviors as its argument:
+
+* ``wrap``: arithmetic on the attributed type wraps on overflow, using two's
+  complement semantics. This is equivalent to ``-fwrapv`` but scoped to the
+  attributed type, and works for both signed and unsigned types. UBSan's
+  ``signed-integer-overflow``, ``unsigned-integer-overflow``,
+  ``implicit-signed-integer-truncation``, and
+  ``implicit-unsigned-integer-truncation`` checks are suppressed for the type.
+
+* ``trap``: arithmetic on the attributed type is checked for overflow, enabling
+  overflow checks for the type even when ``-fwrapv`` is in effect globally.
+
+.. code-block:: c++
+
+  typedef unsigned int __attribute__((overflow_behavior(trap))) 
non_wrapping_uint;
+
+  non_wrapping_uint add_one(non_wrapping_uint a) {
+    return a + 1; // Overflow is checked for this operation.
+  }
+
+  int mul_alot(int n) {
+    int __attribute__((overflow_behavior(wrap))) a = n;
+    return a * 1337; // Overflow is not checked and is well-defined.
+  }
+
+The keyword spellings ``__ob_wrap`` and ``__ob_trap`` are equivalent to
+``overflow_behavior(wrap)`` and ``overflow_behavior(trap)`` respectively.
+
+The attribute wholly overrides global flags (``-ftrapv``, ``-fwrapv``,
+sanitizers, and Sanitizer Special Case Lists) for the attributed type. It can
+only be applied to integer types.
+
+This feature is experimental and must be enabled with the ``-cc1`` option
+``-fexperimental-overflow-behavior-types``. For full details on promotion and
+conversion rules, pointer semantics, diagnostics, and interaction with
+sanitizers, see :doc:`OverflowBehaviorTypes`.
