[NSEDOC] creation of possibly unwanted hyperlinks

[jah <jah () zadkiel plus com>]

Hi,

The attached patch comments-out some patterns from
nsedoc/src/luadoc/doclet/html.lua and which prevents hyperlinking for
strings matching those patterns, for example email addresses,
ipOps.compare_ip, several domain and dns zone names.  These things were
probably not intended to be hyperlinked and those things that were,
still are.

I've attached a comparison of log outputs from nsedoc creation before
and after this change which goes some way to help confirm this (doc
generation wasn't done in the same order both times so it's a bit messy).

Regards,

jah
