These "// bugreport-include" show up in the rendered manpages, both with
AsciiDoc and Asciidoctor. :-(

If I put each comment on a line of its own (after the config option, but
I suppose before would work the same way), Asciidoctor truly ignores
them and everything's fine. And AsciiDoc renders this one and others
like it ok.

However, AsciiDoc (version 8.6.10) seems to effectively replace those
comments with an empty line during processing, and it makes quite the
difference here. Instead of these appearing in a compact comma-separated
list, they are treated as individual items in the description list with
no supporting content.

FWIW, I like the idea of annotating things here to make it harder to
forget this whitelisting when adding a new config item.

Below is what I came up with as an alternative approach. Feel free to
steal, squash and/or ignore as you see fit.

BTW, I'm not sure the grep invocation is portable (-R ? -h ? -P ? -o ?).
We should probably also do the usual "create a candidate output file,
then move it into place" dance for robustness.

I do think we should test the generated whitelist in some minimal way,
e.g., to check that it does contain something which objectively belongs
in the whitelist and -- more importantly IMHO -- does *not* contain
something that shouldn't be there, such as sendemail.smtpPass.

Subject: [PATCH] Use a bugreport:include/exclude macro instead

Implement a no-op "bugreport" macro for use as "bugreport:include[x]" to
annotate the config keys that should be included in the automatically
generated whitelist. Use "exclude" for the others.

With Asciidoctor, it's ok to say "bugreport:include[]", but AsciiDoc
seems to want something between the brackets. A bit unfortunate, but
not a huge problem -- we'll just provide an "x".

"doc-diff" reports that this macro doesn't render at all. That is,
these are both empty after this commit:

  cd Documentation
  ./doc-diff --asciidoctor :/"bugreport: add tool" HEAD
  ./doc-diff --asciidoc    :/"bugreport: add tool" HEAD

Diffing the rendered HTML shows that there is some small amount of
whitespace and comments added. That shouldn't be a problem.

We could perhaps let the implementation verify that the "action" is one
of "include" and "exclude". For the Asciidoctor implementation that
should be straightforward, but for AsciiDoc I don't immediately know how
to do it. Anyway, if someone stumbles on the keyboard and writes
"bugreport:icndule", they'll "only" miss out on the config key being
included in the whitelist. If this were a blacklist, the consequences of
a misspelled target could be a lot more severe.

Disclaimer: This is the outcome of a combination of copy-paste and
trial and error -- better solutions might be possible...

 I suppose this could also be "annotate:bugreport[ignore]" to avoid the
 "[x]" and to place all of this under a more general "annotate" macro.
