allow non-alphanumeric characters to indicate multiple method signatures

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

this causes the summary link in the jsdoc template to be broken
* @name foo.bar^1

yet this doesn't break
* @name foo.bar:1

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Might be nice to support the ^1 ^2 syntax or something similar to indicate 
multiple signatures to 
the same method namepath.

For example:

/**
 * @name foo.bar^1
 * @param {array} x An array of things.
 */

/**
 * @name foo.bar^2
 * @param {string} x The name of one thing.
 */

This applies to Version 2.0.1 and I think the problem may be in Link.js.
