#44411: Add property doc in child class

There are few classes where doc comments are missing for public property
declaration.
Examples:
{{{#!php
<?php
class WP_Customize_Image_Control extends WP_Customize_Upload_Control {
public $type = 'image';
public $mime_type = 'image';
...
}
}}}
The above class extends `WP_Customize_Upload_Control`:
{{{#!php
<?php
class WP_Customize_Upload_Control extends WP_Customize_Media_Control {
public $type = 'upload';
public $mime_type = '';
public $button_labels = array();
public $removed = ''; // unused
public $context; // unused
public $extensions = array(); // unused
...
}
}}}
Although the properties are documented in `WP_Customize_Media_Control`, it
would be good to have them documented inside the scope of each class also.
Otherwise one has to navigate to the class which it extends to read the
actual documentation. Some cases like the one above could have a multi-
level navigation.
Is this worth doing for the sake of better code readability?
