3d035cd2cca66488f6f478a93b231c302466116b qapi: Rewrite doc comment parser
QAPISchemaParser is a conventional recursive descent parser. Except
QAPISchemaParser.get_doc() delegates most of the doc comment parsing
work to a state machine in QAPIDoc. The state machine doesn't get
tokens like a recursive descent parser, it is fed tokens.
I find this state machine rather opaque and hard to maintain.
Replace it by a conventional parser, all in QAPISchemaParser. Less
code, and (at least in my opinion) easier to understand.
