Subject: [PATCH 2/8] docs: kdoc: Move content handling into KernelEntry
Rather than having other code mucking around with this bit of internal
state, encapsulate it internally. Accumulate the description as a list of
strings, joining them at the end, which is a more efficient way of building
the text.
