Documentation Feedback

Currently the MatIcon appears in the Directives section, however it's a Component:

Oh, I just noticed it's happening on all pages, not just for the MatIcon, so now I'm starting to wonder if this is on purpose 🤔

It's a bit of trivia from the Angular.js days, but every component is also a directive.

[dev054]

Yes, I'm aware that a component is, under the hood, a directive, but shouldn't the Material docs differentiate them, like the Angular docs?

@crisbeto : I have created MR for autocomplete just to be sure whether its a correct approach and if that's the case then I can create another MR updating all the other components.

@mistrykaran91 the content in that repo is generated from source code. Your change will be overwritten next time we merge a PR.

My bad. I believe the dgeni project is what is used to create those documents. I can make the necessary adjustments.
