The <inheritdoc/>
XML comments tag allows documentation to be inherited from
base types/members, which reduces the effort required to write documentation.
However, some tools don't support this feature. InheritdocInliner is a
command-line tool that postprocesses XML files and replaces <inheritdoc/>
elements with actual comments.
