Please review a medium-small patch to add some new metadata into each HTML document that is generated by javadoc.

The metadata provides the following:

 * a short stylized description of the contents of the file, for
   potential use by other tools to filter the set of generated files
 * an indication of the part of javadoc that generated the file, to
   help group the different kinds of pages generated by javadoc

A new test program is added. It's a bit of overkill, but it is designed to be future-proof, meaning if we add new types of pages, this test will (intentionally) fail until it is updated to know about those new pages.  I also note that the test was instrumental in helping to discover two unrelated bugs in javadoc. These are linked in the "related links" in the JBS issue.
