trailer: document parse_trailers() usage

Browse Source 
Explain how to use parse_trailers(), because earlier we made the
trailer_info struct opaque. That is, because clients can no longer peek
inside it, we should give them guidance about how the (pointer to the)
opaque struct can still be useful to them.

Rename "head" struct to "trailer_objects" to make the wording of the new
comments a bit easier to read (because "head" itself doesn't really have
any domain-specific meaning here).

/*
* Given some input string "str", return a pointer to an opaque trailer_info
* structure. Also populate the trailer_objects list with parsed trailer
* objects. Internally this calls trailer_info_get() to get the opaque pointer,
* but does some extra work to populate the trailer_objects linked list.
*
* The opaque trailer_info pointer can be used to check the position of the
* trailer block as offsets relative to the beginning of "str" in
* trailer_block_start() and trailer_block_end().
* blank_line_before_trailer_block() returns 1 if there is a blank line just
* before the trailer block. All of these functions are useful for preserving
* the input before and after the trailer block, if we were to write out the
* original input (but with the trailer block itself modified); see
* builtin/interpret-trailers.c for an example.
*
* For iterating through the parsed trailer block (if you don't care about the
* position of the trailer block itself in the context of the larger string text
* from which it was parsed), please see trailer_iterator_init() which uses the
* trailer_info struct internally.
*
* Lastly, callers should call trailer_info_release() when they are done using
* the opaque pointer.
*
* NOTE: Callers should treat both trailer_info and trailer_objects as
* read-only items, because there is some overlap between the two (trailer_info
* has "char **trailers" string array, and trailer_objects will have the same
* data but as a linked list of trailer_item objects). This API does not perform
* any synchronization between the two. In the future we should be able to
* reduce the duplication and use just the linked list.
