Please review a moderately simple fix to improve doclint's checking of
headings in doc comments.
Build folk: by default, the improved checking causes build issues until
the doc comments in some modules can be updated. To workaround that, the
doclint options in the build have been modified. It is assumed we will
re-enable the checks as the issues in each affected module get addressed.
javadoc/doclint folk: the new guidelines of using h2 or h4 as the base
heading as appropriate are now hard-coded into doclint. In addition, the
error messages have been improved, and a new check added, for using a
heading that is too low for the context. Internally, some names have
been improved to reflect the current terminology. Tests have been
updated as appropriate.
