include: document ParseIncludeMap better

The format of the include statment is not explained anywhere, the code
is confusing and the comments misleading. Try to explain it better.

#include "include.h"
/**
* Extract the first token from an include statement.
* @param str_inout Input statement, modified in-place. Can be passed in
* Parse an include statement. Each call returns a file name, along with
* (possibly) a specific map in the file, an explicit group designator, and
* the separator from the next file, used to determine the merge mode.
*
* @param str_inout Input statement, modified in-place. Should be passed in
* repeatedly. If str_inout is NULL, the parsing has completed.
* @param file_rtrn Set to the include file to be used.
* @param map_rtrn Set to whatever comes after ), if any.
* @param nextop_rtrn Set to the next operation in the complete statement.
* @param extra_data Set to the string between ( and ), if any.
*
* @return true if parsing was succcessful, false for an illegal string.
* @param file_rtrn Set to the name of the include file to be used. Combined
* with an enum xkb_file_type, this determines which file to look for in the
* include path.
*
* Example: "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"
* str_inout = aliases(qwerty)
* nextop_retrn = +
* extra_data = NULL
* file_rtrn = evdev
* @param map_rtrn Set to the string between '(' and ')', if any. This will
* result in the compilation of a specific named map within the file (e.g.
* xkb_symbols "basic" { ... }) , as opposed to the default map of the file.
*
* @param nextop_rtrn Set to the next operation in the complete statement,
* which is '\0' if it's the last file or '+' or '|' if there are more.
* Separating the files with '+' sets the merge mode to MERGE_MODE_OVERRIDE,
* while '|' sets the merge mode to MERGE_MODE_AUGMENT.
*
* @param extra_data Set to the string after ':', if any. Currently the
* extra data is only used for setting an explicit group index for a symbols
* file.
*
* @return true if parsing was successful, false for an illegal string.
*
* Example: "evdev+aliases(qwerty):2"
* str_inout = "aliases(qwerty):2"
* file_rtrn = "evdev"
* map_rtrn = NULL
*
* 2nd run with "aliases(qwerty)"
* str_inout = NULL
* file_rtrn = aliases
* map_rtrn = qwerty
* nextop_retrn = "+"
* extra_data = NULL
*
* 2nd run with "aliases(qwerty):2"
* str_inout = NULL
* file_rtrn = "aliases"
* map_rtrn = "qwerty"
* nextop_retrn = ""
* extra_data = "2"
*
