Document is not a Comment. Document shouldn't be assigned to code_obj…

…ect.comment

CodeObject#comment is normally String or Comment, but Marshal.dump and load creates CodeObject with comment=Document.
Some method requires Document stored in CodeObject#comment, some requires Comment.
We should stop mixing Document with Comment because it is mixing huge complexity and potential bugs to RDoc codebase.
