patch and testcase to fix not used titles

The docanchor tag does not contain the title of the command that generated it. 

In the case of \section this leads to anchors that use the title when
\ref'ing to them inside one documentation unit and that use the name
of the anchor when \ref'ing to them through a tag.

To reproduce this with the attached test-case:

  $ doxygen Doxyfile1 # creates tag files one.tag
  $ doxygen Doxyfile2 # uses one.tag
  $ firefox one/html/index.html # see the working \ref using the title
  $ firefox two/html/index.html # see the \ref that is using the anchor name
  
The attached patch fixes this issue by adding a title attribute to the
docanchor element and uses it.

Thanks, I'll include the patch in the next release.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.3. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information
that you think can be relevant.
