This doc was originally written by Daniel P. Berrangé
<berrange@redhat.com>, introduced via commit[1]: 2544e9e4aa (docs: add
guidance on configuring CPU models for x86, 2018-06-27).
In this patch:
- 1-1 conversion of Texinfo to rST, besides a couple of minor
tweaks that are too trivial to mention. (Thanks to Stephen
Finucane on IRC for the suggestion to use rST "definition lists"
instead of bullets in some places.)
Further modifications will be done via a separate patch.
- rST and related infra changes: manual page generation, Makefile
fixes, clean up references to qemu-cpu-models.texi, update year in
the copyright notice, etc.
[1] https://git.qemu.org/?p=qemu.git;a=commit;h=2544e9e4aa
As part of the conversion, we use a more generic 'author' attribution
for the manpage than we previously had, as agreed with the original
author Dan Berrange.

Rather than accumulating generally useful rST substitution
definitions in individual rST files, create a defs.rst.inc where we
can define these. To start with it has the |qemu_system| definition
from qemu-block-drivers.rst.
Add a comment noting a pitfall where putting literal markup in the
definition of |qemu_system| makes it misrender manpage output; this
means the point-of-use must handle the literal markup (which is
almost always done by having it inside a parsed-literal block).

This removes the "only" directives, and lets us use the conventional
"DESCRIPTION" section in the manpage.
This temporarily drops the qemu-block-drivers documentation
from the system manual, but it will be put back (in the
right place in the toctree) in a later commit.

The qemu-block-drivers documentation is currently in
docs/qemu-block-drivers.texi in Texinfo format, which we present
to the user as:
* a qemu-block-drivers manpage
* a section of the main qemu-doc HTML documentation
Convert the documentation to rST format, and present it to
the user as:
* a qemu-block-drivers manpage
* part of the system/ Sphinx manual
This follows the same pattern we've done for qemu-ga and qemu-nbd.
We have to drop a cross-reference from the documentation of the
-cdrom option back to the qemu-block-drivers documentation, since
they're no longer within the same texinfo document.
As noted in a comment, the manpage output is slightly compromised
due to limitations in Sphinx. In an ideal world, the HTML output
would have the various headings like 'Disk image file formats'
as top-level section headings (which then appear in the overall
system manual's table-of-contents), and it would not have the
section headings which make sense only for the manpage like
'synopsis', 'description', and 'see also'. Unfortunately, the
mechanism Sphinx provides for restricting pieces of documentation
is limited to the point of being flawed: the 'only::' directive
is implemented as a filter that is applied at a very late stage
in the document processing pipeline, rather than as an early
equivalent of an #ifdef. This means that Sphinx's process of
identifying which section heading markup styles are which levels
of heading gets confused if the 'only::' directive contains
section headings which would affect the heading-level of a
later heading. I have opted to prioritise making the HTML format
look better, with the compromise being that in the manpage
the 'Disk image file formats' &c headings are top-level headings
rather than being sub-headings under the traditional 'Description'
top-level section title.
