Unparsed doxygen comment in the tooltip.

In Kdevelop 5.1.1 doxygen comments were parsed and properly rendered in the tooltips when hovering over your types (See pictures). In version 5.2.1 it just shows the raw text without formatting, which is a regression

Comment 2 Francis Herne 2017-12-09 20:27:50 UTC
This was disabled in 5.2.1, because it triggers a bug in libclang [1] that causes KDevelop to crash.

When that problem is fixed upstream it can be re-enabled.
