46f49468c6 qapi/error: Repurpose QAPIError as an abstract base exception class
Rename QAPIError to QAPISourceError, and then create a new QAPIError
class that serves as the basis for all of our other custom exceptions,
without specifying any class properties.

This leaves QAPIError as a package-wide error class that's suitable for
any current or future errors.

(Right now, we don't have any errors that DON'T also want to specify a
Source location, but this MAY change. In these cases, a common abstract
ancestor would be desired.)

Add docstrings to explain the intended function of each error class.

2d18b4ca02 sphinx: qapidoc: Wrap "If" section body in a paragraph node
These sections need to be wrapped in a block-level element, such as
Paragraph in order for them to be rendered into Texinfo correctly.

Before (e.g.):

<section ids="qapidoc-713">
  <title>If</title>
  <literal>defined(CONFIG_REPLICATION)</literal>
</section>

became:

  .SS If
  \fBdefined(CONFIG_REPLICATION)\fP.SS \fBBlockdevOptionsReplication\fP (Object)
  ...

After:

<section ids="qapidoc-713">
  <title>If</title>
  <paragraph>
    <literal>defined(CONFIG_REPLICATION)</literal>
  </paragraph>
</section>

becomes:

  .SS If
  .sp
  \fBdefined(CONFIG_REPLICATION)\fP
  .SS \fBBlockdevOptionsReplication\fP (Object)
  ...

35f15acbc1 docs/sphinx/qapidoc.py: Handle change of QAPI's builtin module name
In commit e2bbc4eaa7 we changed the QAPI modules to name the built-in
module "./builtin" rather than None, but forgot to update the Sphinx
plugin. The effect of this was that when the plugin generated a dependency
file it was including a bogus dependency on a non-existent file named
"builtin", which meant that ninja would run Sphinx and rebuild all
the documentation every time even if nothing had changed.

Update the plugin to use the new name of the builtin module.

04f22362f1 qapi: Add a 'coroutine' flag for commands
This patch adds a new 'coroutine' flag to QMP command definitions that
tells the QMP dispatcher that the command handler is safe to be run in a
coroutine.

The documentation of the new flag pretends that this flag is already
used as intended, which it isn't yet after this patch. We'll implement
this in another patch in this series.

4078ee5469 docs/sphinx: Add new qapi-doc Sphinx extension
Some of our documentation is auto-generated from documentation
comments in the JSON schema.

For Sphinx, rather than creating a file to include, the most natural
way to handle this is to have a small custom Sphinx extension which
processes the JSON file and inserts documentation into the rST
file being processed.

This is the same approach that kerneldoc and hxtool use.
