The first argument is the command requested from the back-end. It is one
of the following:
-`prefix': The back-end should return the text to be completed. It must be text
-immediately before point. Returning nil passes control to the next back-end.
-The function should return `stop' if it should complete but cannot \(e.g. if it
-is in the middle of a string\). Instead of a string, the back-end may return a
-cons where car is the prefix and cdr is used in `company-minimum-prefix-length'
-test. It's either number or t, in which case the test automatically succeeds.

The back-end should create a buffer (preferably with `company-doc-buffer'),
fill it with documentation and return it.
