The new qapidoc.py can generate "Returns" statements with type
information just fine, so we can remove it from the source where it
doesn't add anything particularly novel or helpful and just repeats the
type info.
This patch is fairly "gentle" and doesn't aggressively touch other
"Returns" lines that could be rephrased to omit repeating type
information; it only removes lines that appear appropriate to wholly
remove.
To help facilitate auto-generated placement, a few doc blocks have a
"TODO:" line inserted to help the placement algorithm differentiate the
introductory paragraph(s) from the rest of the documentation.
The auto-generated returns are in the exact same spot, except for
query-migrationthreads, query-machines, and
x-query-virtio-queue-element. These auto-generation moves to a better
spot.

Generated command documentation lacks information on return value in
several cases, e.g. query-tpm.
The obvious fix would be to require a Returns: section when a command
returns something.
However, note that many existing Returns: sections are pretty useless:
the description is basically the return type, which then gets rendered
like "Return: <Type> – <basically the return type>". This suggests
that a description is often not really necessary, and requiring one
isn't useful.
Instead, generate the obvious minimal thing when Returns: is absent:
"Return: <Type>".
This auto-generated Return documentation is placed is as follows:
1. If we have arguments, return goes right after them.
2. Else if we have errors, return goes right before them.
3. Else if we have features, return goes right before them.
4. Else return goes right after the intro
To facilitate this algorithm, a "TODO:" hack line is used to separate
the intro from the remainder of the documentation block in cases where
there are no other sections to separate the intro from e.g. examples and
additional detail meant to appear below the key sections of interest.

Remove the QAPI doc section heading syntax, use plain rST section
headings instead.
Tests and documentation are updated to match.
Interestingly, Plain rST headings work fine before this patch, except
for over- and underlining with '=', which the doc parser rejected as
invalid QAPI doc section heading in free-form comments.

[Add more detail to commit message]

There is a (Since: 2.11) in a query-hotpluggable-cpus example.
Versioning information ought to be in the command description, not
examples. The command description is basically empty (there is a TODO
about it).
What exactly didn't work before 2.11 is not quite clear from the
documentation. The example was added in commit 4dc3b15188 (s390x:
implement query-hotpluggable-cpus), which suggests the command failed
for the s390x target until then. This was almost eight years ago, and
I doubt anyone still cares about this detail. Simply delete
the problematic (Since: 2.11).

Since the "shix" machine has been removed, the "r2d" machine is the only
machine that is still available for the sh4 and sh4eb targets. However,
the "r2d" machine apparently does not work in big endian mode, see here:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/87a5fwjjew.wl-ysato@users.sourceforge.jp/
So there is no working machine left in the sh4eb-softmmu target, i.e. it
is currently completely useless. Thus remove it from the configuration
now. (Note: The linux-user binary is not removed since it might still
be used to run sh4 binaries in big endian mode).

QAPI's 'prefix' feature can make the connection between enumeration
type and its constants less than obvious. It's best used with
restraint.
CpuS390Entitlement has a 'prefix' to change the generated enumeration
constants' prefix from CPU_S390_ENTITLEMENT to S390_CPU_ENTITLEMENT.
Rename the type to S390CpuEntitlement, so that 'prefix' is not needed.
Likewise change CpuS390Polarization to S390CpuPolarization, and
CpuS390State to S390CpuState.

Recent commit "qapi: Smarter camel_to_upper() to reduce need for
'prefix'" added a temporary 'prefix' to delay changing the generated
code.
Revert it. This improves HmatLBDataType's generated enumeration
constant prefix from HMATLB_DATA_TYPE to HMAT_LB_DATA_TYPE, and
HmatLBMemoryHierarchy's from HMATLB_MEMORY_HIERARCHY to
HMAT_LB_MEMORY_HIERARCHY.

camel_to_upper() converts its argument from camel case to upper case
with '_' between words. Used for generated enumeration constant
prefixes.
When some of the words are spelled all caps, where exactly to insert
'_' is guesswork. camel_to_upper()'s guesses are bad enough in places
to make people override them with a 'prefix' in the schema.
Rewrite it to guess better:
1. Insert '_' after a non-upper case character followed by an upper
case character:
OneTwo -> ONE_TWO
One2Three -> ONE2_THREE
2. Insert '_' before the last upper case character followed by a
non-upper case character:
ACRONYMWord -> ACRONYM_Word
Except at the beginning (as in OneTwo above), or when there is
already one:
AbCd -> AB_CD
This changes the default enumeration constant prefix for a number of
enums. Generated enumeration constants change only where the default
is not overridden with 'prefix'.
The following enumerations without a 'prefix' change:

new camel_to_upper()

Add a 'prefix' so generated code doesn't change now. Subsequent
commits will remove most of them again. Two will remain:

that way, and Q_KEY_CODE, because that one is baked into
subprojects/keycodemapdb/tools/keymap-gen.
