Dokka: Java package-info.html files not included in documentation

[mikeholler]

I'd like my Java classes to have package-level documentation. I've setup the package-info.html files in each package and it works for my Gradle Javadoc task, but when I run ./gradlew dokka the text in the package-info.html files is nowhere to be seen.

Javadoc content from package-info.java files is ignored as well.

Maybe a small point, but the java conventions are package.html and package-info.java - there was never a package-info.html. You might want to change the title of this issue to reflect that. I would be happy for dokka to work automatically with either of those, and/or something dokka-specific like package.md or module.md.

I wrote something else here, but I think I'm going to treat it as a separate issue instead.
