Hi,

Michael (cc:'ed) pointed out [1] that pg_bsd_indent could do a
slightly better job when it comes to formatting multiline comments. I
prepared a patch that fixes this.

How to test it:

```
ninja -C build
cp build/src/tools/pg_bsd_indent/pg_bsd_indent ~/bin/pg_bsd_indent
cp src/tools/pgindent/pgindent ~/bin/pgindent
pgindent src/backend/utils/adt/varlena.c
git diff
```

Expected changes:

```
-/* name_text()
+/*
+ * name_text()
  * Converts a Name type to a text type.
  */
```

Everything else should work as before.

Thoughts and feedback are most welcomed.
