Allowed types: list<list<string>>

Default value: [['author', 'copyright', 'license'], ['category', 'package', 'subpackage'], ['property', 'property-read', 'property-write'], ['deprecated', 'link', 'see', 'since']]

skip_unlisted_annotations

Whether to skip annotations that are not listed in any group.

Allowed types: bool

Default value: false
