What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version
go version go1.11 linux/amd64

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

yes

What did you do?

Looked at the documentation for the Unicode package. The package variables part contains some redundant information in the category descriptions.

https://golang.org/pkg/unicode/#pkg-variables

When I look at the comments there I have to go away and look up what the category descriptions are so I know which category I need. It would be much better to have the category description included in the comments.
