Read implementation section of units and merge info to that taken from interface section. Option

implementation comments. Use whichever comment is non-empty. If they are both non-empty, use the
interface comment.
join - Read both interface and implementation
comments and concatenate them. If the interface comment is also present (repeated) at the
beginning of the implementation comment, it will be ignored (to not repeat 2x the same text in the
concatenated result)
prefer-implementation - Just like "prefer
interface", but if both comments are non-empty, use the implementation comment
