-This script attempts to automatically convert option descriptions from
-DocBook syntax to markdown. Naturally this process is incomplete and
-imperfect, so any changes generated by this script MUST be reviewed.
-
-Possible problems include: incorrectly replaced tags, badly formatted
-markdown, DocBook tags this script doesn't recognize remaining in the
-output and crashing the docs build, incorrect escaping of markdown
-metacharacters, incorrect unescaping of XML entities—and the list goes on.
-
-Always review the generated changes!
-
-Some known limitations:
-  - Does not transform literalDocBook items
-  - Replacements can occur in non-option code, such as string literals
