> When parsing IDL, only the last documentation comment for a declaration is
> used.
> Any previous documentation comments are silently ignored.
> Proposed fix: while keeping the exact same parsing results, emit warnings for
> each documentation comment that is ignored.
> Additional suggestion: mention that a common cause for such a warning is
> using a documentation comment instead of a multiline comment.
