[PATCH v4 2/2] checkpatch: warn on known non-plural rust doc headers

[Patrick Miller <paddymills@proton.me>]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2342 bytes --]

Adds a check for documentation in rust file. Warns if certain known
documentation headers are not plural.

The rust maintainers prefer document headers to be plural. This is to
enforce consistency among the documentation as well as to protect against
errors when additions are made. For example, if the header said "Example"
because there was only 1 example, if a second example was added, making
the header plural could easily be missed and the maintainers prefer to
not have to remind people to fix their documentation.
