Get comments from base classes #18

Should also be copying comments from base classes. Not just interfaces.

When classes are involved in the inheritance chain we should copy comments from the closest class that that has a declaration for the specific member, and also has documentation for that member. If no class has as declaration of the member or has a declaration but no documentation the comments will be taken from the member declaration on the interface as usual.

These rules would apply to the new run mode. With the already existing run mode the comments would just trickle down. So we would take comments first from interfaces if there is one. Secondly walk down the inheritance tree copying the first documentation found.

Assuming this project is long dead?

It's safe to assume that I won't' be getting to it any time soon unless things change drastically
