Recently, there was a PR merged that changed -comment-syntax setting in Scaladoc to PathBased. It introduced a small regression in our docs: https://dotty.epfl.ch/api/index.html. The problem was that when we didn't find an entry that matched the path, we were always using default syntax which is Markdown. What we actually need to do is try to find a fallback entry (one without path specified) and use its syntax. Only if there's no such entry, we should fall back to Markdown.
