This is somewhat fragile. `warn_doc_param_not_found` is enabled whenever `-Wdocumentation` is enabled and `warn_unknown_comment_command_name` is enabled whenever `-Wdocumentation-unknown-command` is enabled.

But what about `-Wdocumentation-pedantic`, `-Wdocumentation-html`, and `-Wdocumentation-deprecated-sync`?
