36   * in the package-info.java file and it gets used in the production of the Javadocs.
37   * See <a

39   * >link</a> for more info.

41   *
42   * <p>
43   * This check specifically only validates package definitions. It will not validate any methods or
44   * interfaces declared in the package-info.java file.
