When docs are explicitly requested, require Sphinx>=1.6.0. When docs are
explicitly disabled, don't bother to check for Sphinx at all. If docs
are set to "auto", attempt to locate Sphinx, but continue onward if it

Save a bit of build time by passing the number of jobs option to
sphinx.
We cannot use the -j option from make because meson does not support
setting build time parameters for custom targets. Use nproc instead or
the equivalent sphinx option "-j auto", if that is available (version
>=1.7.0).
Also make sure our plugins support parallelism and report it properly
to sphinx. Particularly, implement the merge_domaindata method in
DBusDomain that is used to merge in data from other subprocesses.

Currently, the kerneldoc Sphinx plugin doesn't honour the
--enable-werror configure option, so its warnings are never fatal.
This is because although we do pass sphinx-build the -W switch, the
warnings from kerneldoc are produced by the scripts/kernel-doc script
directly and don't go through Sphinx's "emit a warning" function.
When --enable-werror is in effect, pass sphinx-build an extra
argument -Dkerneldoc_werror=1. The kerneldoc plugin can then use
this to determine whether it should be passing the kernel-doc script
-Werror.
We do this because there is no documented mechanism for
a Sphinx plugin to determine whether sphinx-build was
passed -W or not; if one is provided then we can switch to
that at a later date:

Once upon a time, "sphinx-build" on certain RPM platforms invoked
specifically a Python 2.x version, while "sphinx-build-3" was a distro
shim for the Python 3.x version.
These days, none of our supported platforms utilize a 2.x version, and
those that still have 'sphinx-build-3' make it a symbolic link to
'sphinx-build'. Not searching for 'sphinx-build-3' will prefer
pip/venv installed versions of sphinx if they're available.
This adds an extremely convenient ability to test document building
ability in QEMU across multiple versions of Sphinx for the purposes of
compatibility testing.

Meson 0.58.2 does not need b_staticpic=$pie anymore, and has
stabilized the keyval module. Remove the workaround and use a few
replacements for features deprecated in the 0.57.0 release cycle.
One feature that we would like to use is passing dependencies to
summary. However, that was broken in 0.59.0 and 0.59.1. Therefore,
use the embedded Meson if the host has anything older than 0.59.2,
but allow --meson= to use 0.58.2.

The sphinx-build is fairly verbose spitting out pages of output to the
console, which causes errors from other build commands to be scrolled
off the top of the terminal. This can leave the mistaken impression that

The standard Sphinx/RTD HTML page footer gives a copyright line
(based on the 'copyright' variable set in conf.py) and a line "Built
with Sphinx using a theme provided by Read the Docs" (which can be
disabled via the html_show_sphinx variable, but we leave it enabled).
As a free software project, we'd like to also mention the license
QEMU and its manual are released under.
Add a template footer.html which defines the 'extrafooter' block that
the RtD theme provides for this purpose. The new line of text will
go below the existing copyright and sphinx-acknowledgement lines.
(Unfortunately the RTD footer template does not permit putting it
after the copyright but before the sphinx-acknowledgement.)
We use the templating functionality to make the new text also be a
hyperlink to the about/license.html page of the manual.
Unlike rst files, HTML template files are not reported to our depfile
plugin, so we maintain a manual list in meson.build. New template
files should be rare, so not being able to auto-generate the
dependency info is not too awkward.

The default "alabaster" sphinx theme has a couple shortcomings:
- the navbar moves along the page
- the search bar is not always at the same place
- it lacks some contrast and colours
The "rtd" theme from readthedocs.org is a popular third party theme used
notably by the kernel, with a custom style sheet. I like it better,
perhaps others do too. It also simplifies the "Edit on Gitlab" links.
Tweak a bit the custom theme to match qemu.org style, use the
QEMU logo, and favicon etc.

When we first converted our documentation to Sphinx, we split it into
multiple manuals (system, interop, tools, etc), which are all built
separately. The primary driver for this was wanting to be able to
avoid shipping the 'devel' manual to end-users. However, this is
working against the grain of the way Sphinx wants to be used and
causes some annoyances:
* Cross-references between documents become much harder or
possibly impossible
* There is no single index to the whole documentation
* Within one manual there's no links or table-of-contents info
that lets you easily navigate to the others
* The devel manual doesn't get published on the QEMU website
(it would be nice to able to refer to it there)
Merely hiding our developer documentation from end users seems like
it's not enough benefit for these costs. Combine all the
documentation into a single manual (the same way that the readthedocs
site builds it) and install the whole thing. The previous manual
divisions remain as the new top level sections in the manual.
* The per-manual conf.py files are no longer needed
* The man_pages[] specifications previously in each per-manual
conf.py move to the top level conf.py
* docs/meson.build logic is simplified as we now only need to run
Sphinx once for the HTML and then once for the manpages5B
* The old index.html.in that produced the top-level page with
links to each manual is no longer needed
Unfortunately this means that we now have to build the HTML
documentation into docs/manual in the build tree rather than directly
into docs/; otherwise it is too awkward to ensure we install only the
built manual and not also the dependency info, stamp file, etc. The
manual still ends up in the same place in the final installed
directory, but anybody who was consulting documentation from within
the build tree will have to adjust where they're looking.
