doc: debugobjects: actually pull in the kerneldoc comments
Add the appropriate markup to get the kerneldoc comments out of lib/debugobjects.c that have never seen the light of day until now. A logical next step, left for the reader at the moment, is to move the function descriptions *out* of debug-objects.rst and into the kerneldoc comments themselves.
