Please review a change to allow marking API elements as preview features via a 
new hidden `--preview-feature-tag` option. In conjunction with the already 
existing hidden `--preview-note-tag` option this allows documenting elements as 
preview features without relying on JDK-internal types. 

Part of this change is a refactoring of how `SummaryListWriter` allows its 
subclasses to extend the content of summary pages. The old `addExtra*` hook 
methods were too unflexible as they always add extra content before other page 
content. I replaced them with protected `getIndexLinks` and `addSummaries` 
methods that allow overriding methods to add extra content before or after the 
default content returned by the super method.

The change also includes the fix for 
[JDK-8355933](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8355933) to change the 
presentation and wording for elements with preview notes as requested by the 
Valhalla team. 

The output generated by the new test with preview features marked by tags [can 
be viewed
