kernel-doc: warn on badly formatted short description
Make kernel-doc warn when a function/struct/union/typedef does not contain
a properly formatted short description, such as:
* scsi_devinfo: set up the dynamic device list
or
* scsi_devinfo -
This warning is only generated when verbose (-v) mode is used.
Also explain the -v command line option in the -h output.
