#93: Move lexing and parsing of Haddock comments into Haddock

Currently, GHC does lexing and parsing of Haddock comments. This was
decided so GHC could rename the Haddock comments during its renamer phase.
Since it's possible to access the renaming environment from the GHC API,
we could do the renaming in Haddock instead, which would enable us to move
lexing and parsing of Haddock comments into Haddock. The advantage is that
we don't have to do development to GHC in order to make changes to these
components.
