Documentation builds were using "-q" for a long time, but sometimes
it is nice to see the Sphinx progress, without increasing build
verbosity - which would also turn on kernel-doc verbosity.
Instead of doing that, let's parse the sphinx-build already-existing
-v: each time it is used, it increases the verbosity level.
With that, if the default is to use -q, a single -v will disable
quiet mode. Passing more -v will keep increasing its verbosity.

When the user explicitly specifies SPHINXDIRS to build a specific
subdirectory it is unexpected that the rust docs are also generated.
Especially as their generation may dominate the execution time.
Only generate the rust docs when they are part of the SPHINXDIRS
requested by the user. 'rust/rustdocs' is not considered, as it is
not a valid SPHINXDIRS anyways.

Now that the Sphinx build does not use the kerneldoc_bin configuration
variable, we shouldn't try to set it in the build wrapper or we get a nifty

The recent move of this script from scripts/ to tools/docs/
did not account for the 'cd' directory usage.
Update "cd .." to "cd ../.." to make the script self-correcting.
This also eliminates a shell warning:
./tools/docs/find-unused-docs.sh: line 33: cd: Documentation/: No such file or directory

The makefile logic to detect if rust is enabled is not working
the way it was expected: instead of using the current setup
for CONFIG_RUST, it uses a cached version from a previous build.
The root cause is that the current logic inside docs/Makefile
uses a cached version of CONFIG_RUST, from the last time a non
documentation target was executed. That's perfectly fine for
Sphinx build, as it doesn't need to read or depend on any
CONFIG_*.
So, instead of relying at the cache, move the logic to the
wrapper script and let it check the current content of .config,
to verify if CONFIG_RUST was selected.

As we want to call Python code directly at the Sphinx extension,
convert get_feat.pl to Python.
The code was made to be (almost) bug-compatible with the Perl
version, with two exceptions:
1. Currently, Perl script outputs a wrong table if arch is set
to a non-existing value;
2. the ReST table output when --feat is used without --arch
has an invalid format, as the number of characters for the
table delimiters are wrong.
Those two bugs were fixed while testing the conversion.
Additionally, another caveat was solved:
the output when --feat is used without arch and the feature
doesn't exist doesn't contain an empty table anymore.

Now that we have tools/lib/python for our Python modules, turn them into
proper packages with a single namespace so that everything can just use
tools/lib/python in sys.path. No functional change.

"scripts/lib" was always a bit of an awkward place for Python modules. We
already have tools/lib; create a tools/lib/python, move the libraries
there, and update the users accordingly.
While at it, move the contents of tools/docs/lib. Rather than make another
directory, just put these documentation-oriented modules under "kdoc".

Our documentation-related tools are spread out over various directories;
several are buried in the scripts/ dumping ground. That makes them harder
to discover and harder to maintain.
Recent work has started accumulating our documentation-related tools in
/tools/docs. This series nearly completes that task, moving most of the
rest of our various utilities there, hopefully fixing up all of the
relevant references in the process.
The one exception is scripts/kernel-doc; that move turned up some other
problems, so I have dropped it until those are ironed out.
At the end, rather than move the old, Perl kernel-doc, I simply removed it.
Move this tool out of scripts/ to join the other documentation tools; fix
up a couple of erroneous references in the process.
It's worth noting that this script will fail badly unless one has a
PYTHONPATH referencing scripts/lib/abi.

The scripts for managing the features docs are found in three different
directories; unite them all under tools/docs and update references as
needed.
