Handle common directives that can occur in a block of text:
:include: filename
Directives can be escaped by preceding them with a backslash.
RDoc plugin authors can register additional directives to be handled by using ::register.
Any directive that is not built-in to RDoc (including those registered via plugins) will be stored in the metadata hash on the CodeObject the comment is attached to. See Directives at RDoc::Markup for the list of built-in directives.
