This patch refactors the VPP sphinx docs
in order to make it easier to consume
for external readers as well as VPP developers.
It also makes sphinx the single source
of documentation, which simplifies maintenance
and operation.
Most important updates are:
- reformat the existing documentation as rst
- split RELEASE.md and move it into separate rst files
- remove section 'events'
- remove section 'archive'
- remove section 'related projects'
- remove section 'feature by release'
- remove section 'Various links'
- make (Configuration reference, CLI docs,
developer docs) top level items in the list
- move 'Use Cases' as part of 'About VPP'
- move 'Troubleshooting' as part of 'Getting Started'
- move test framework docs into 'Developer Documentation'
- add a 'Contributing' section for gerrit,
docs and other contributer related infos
- deprecate doxygen and test-docs targets
- redirect the "make doxygen" target to "make docs"
Type: refactor

in doxygen

- We now have several developer-focused docs, so create an index page
for them.
- Rework several docs to fit into the index structure.
- Experiment with code highlighting; tweak the CSS slightly to make
it slightly nicer to look at.

maintain.
- Move much of the output rendering into Jinja2 templates.
- Add syscfg siphon type for startup config documentation.
- Add sample syscfg documentation.
- Add clicfg and syscfg preamble docs, adapted from their wiki pages.
- Fix sorting of CLI items across multiple directories.

So that downstream projects can make use of the generated
Doxygen tags file, move it into the html directory that is
transferred to Nexus.

- If present, include the directories where API header files
are generated into.
- Improve extraction of include paths from CPP
- Generalize the file/directory exclusion
This reduces some of the "warning" chatter from Doxygen.

- Fix issue in Doxy dependency check when nothing needs to be installed.
'set -e' and plain '[]' logic don't mix well.
- Fix Makefile snafu when building Doxy output for a single file.
- Include only one of vnet/vnet/buffer.c/dpdk_buffer.c in docs depending on
DPDKness. This could do with some improvement in future, eg to properly
align the pre-doxy steps with what Doxy does.
- Fix rendering of 'inline' tag in Doxygen by having it interpret
always_inline as "inline static".
- Bunch of duplicate CLI command structure names that confused docs and may
one day have caused debugging issues.
- Several other Doxygen syntax issues fixed, like documenting non-existant
parameters (usually just the wrong parameter name, typos, etc)

Fixes various Doxygen warnings and other structural defects.
Note: This does not attempt to improve the content of the
documentation; only to improve the syntax and structure of it
and in some cases the consistency.

As a step before Doxygen, extract CLI-related struct initializers
from the code and parse that into a summary of the CLI commands
available with the provided help text, such as it is. At the moment
this only renders this into an indexed Markdown file that Doxygen
then picks up but later we can use this information to enrich the
existing VLIB_CLI_COMMAND macro documentor as well as provide
runtime documentation to VPP that is stored on disk outside the
binary image.
Additionally support a comment block immediately prior to
VLIB_CLI_COMMAND CLI command definitions in the form /*? ... ?*/
that can be used to include long-form documentation without having
it compiled into VPP.
Examples of documenting CLI commands can be found in
vlib/vlib/unix/cli.c which, whilst not perfect, should provide a
starting point. Screen captures of sample output can be seen at
https://chrisy.flirble.org/vpp/doxy-cli-example.png and
https://chrisy.flirble.org/vpp/doxy-cli-index.png .
Next, shift the Doxygen root makefile targets to their own Makefile.
The primary reason for this is that the siphon targets do dependency
tracking which means it needs to generate those dependencies whenever
make is run; that is pointless if we're not going to generate any
documentation. This includes the package dependencies since they since
they sometimes unnecessarily interfere with the code build in some cases
at the moment; later we will look to building a Python venv to host the
Python modules we use.
One final remark: In future we may consider deprecating .long_help
in the VLIB_CLI_COMMAND structure entirely but add perhaps .usage_help.
.short_help would be reserved for a summary of the command function
and .usage_help provide the syntax of that command. These changes would
provide great semantic value to the automaticly generated CLI
documentation. I could also see having .long_help replaced by a
mechanism that reads it from disk at runtime with a rudimentary
Markdown/Doxygen filter so that we can use the same text that is used in
the published documentation.

Also allow a developer to alter the directories scanned at runtime to
facilitate shorter run-times when writing documentation.

This makes Doxygen think the API definitions are structs which is close
enough to be able to document the API methods.
It also has logic to create an indexed API page but that's disabled for
now because it duplicates the "brief" text twice in the struct doc.
Fixes a minor line numbering issue in filter_c.py.

- Configures Doxygen.
- Adds a source filter to do magic on our use of the preprocessor to do
constructor stuff to make Doxygen grok it better.
- Adds a convenience helper to the root Makefile.
- Adds a README.md to the root directory (and which Doxygem uses as its
"mainpage".
- Add several other documentative files.
- Currently using SVG for call graphs, though this may have a
load-time performance impact in browsers.
