Subject: [PATCH 3/3] Emacs: Hide html parsing failure in erldoc by default

The parsing of the OTP doc seldom fails but in the rare cases it does
not find a function signature hide the error by default.  If the user
wish to be notified they may customize `erldoc-no-signature-function'.

Sorry for breaking the "Let it crash!" rule ;)
