Sat Nov 12 18:11:21 UTC 2016
From: Yong Bakos <ybakos at humanoriented.com>
Standardize the doxygen comment format, add clarity to the writing, decouple
the description from specifics of usage, add see-also's, and massage the union
member type comments.
Signed-off-by: Yong Bakos <ybakos at humanoriented.com>

v3: Correct spelling of marhsalling.
v2: Match union member type names to actual protocol-defined type names,
rather than their descriptions.
