Update (doc) comments
Several (doc) comments were super outdated or didn't provide enough context.

the fact that the first paragraph should be a single sentence because rustdoc
treats these as item descriptions / synopses on module pages.

For more information about how these things work in rustc, see the rustc dev guide:
