Subject: [PATCH] Strip trailing asterisks before `*/` in Javadoc comments.

Decorative closing delimiters such as `/** ... **/` previously had the trailing
asterisk retained as comment body content, resulting in `/** ... * */`.

Ported from google/google-java-format#1474 (commit 2957b192). In this fork
stripJavadocBeginAndEnd lives in JavadocLexer; the tests were written first
and failed with `* */` before the change.
