c81cfb89bc docs: Add a QEMU Code of Conduct and Conflict Resolution Policy document
In an ideal world, we would all get along together very well, always be
polite and never end up in huge conflicts. And even if there are conflicts,
we would always handle each other fair and respectfully. Unfortunately,
this is not an ideal world and sometimes people forget how to interact with
each other in a professional and respectful way. Fortunately, this seldom
happens in the QEMU community, but for such rare cases it is preferrable
to have a basic code of conduct document available to show to people
who are misbehaving.  In case that does not help yet, we should also have
a conflict resolution policy ready that can be applied in the worst case.

The Code of Conduct document tries to be short and to the point while
trying to remain friendly and welcoming; it is based on the Fedora Code
of Conduct[1] with extra detail added based on the Contributor Covenant
1.3.0[2].  Other proposals included the Contributor Covenant 1.3.0 itself
or the Django Code of Conduct[3] (which is also a derivative of Fedora's)
but, in any case, there was agreement on keeping the conflict resolution
policy separate from the CoC itself.

An important point is whether to apply the code of conduct to violations
that occur outside public spaces.  The text herein restricts that to
individuals acting as a representative or a member of the project or
its community.  This is intermediate between the Contributor Covenant
(which only mentions representatives of the community, for example using
an official project e-mail address or posting via an official social media
account), and the Django Code of Conduct, which says that violations of
this code outside these spaces "may" be considered but otherwise applies
no limit.

The conflict resolution policy is based on the Drupal Conflict Resolution
Policy[4] and its derivative, the Mozilla Consequence Ladder[5].

aaaa20b69b scripts: add block-coroutine-wrapper.py
We have a very frequent pattern of creating a coroutine from a function
with several arguments:

  - create a structure to pack parameters
  - create _entry function to call original function taking parameters
    from struct
  - do different magic to handle completion: set ret to NOT_DONE or
    EINPROGRESS or use separate bool field
  - fill the struct and create coroutine from _entry function with this
    struct as a parameter
  - do coroutine enter and BDRV_POLL_WHILE loop

Let's reduce code duplication by generating coroutine wrappers.

This patch adds scripts/block-coroutine-wrapper.py together with some
friends, which will generate functions with declared prototypes marked
by the 'generated_co_wrapper' specifier.

The usage of new code generation is as follows:

    1. define the coroutine function somewhere

        int coroutine_fn bdrv_co_NAME(...) {...}

    2. declare in some header file

        int generated_co_wrapper bdrv_NAME(...);

       with same list of parameters (generated_co_wrapper is
       defined in "include/block/block.h").

    3. Make sure the block_gen_c declaration in block/meson.build
       mentions the file with your marker function.

Still, no function is now marked, this work is for the following
commit.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAdRf_hwxU8 (video)
https://vmsplice.net/~stefan/stefanha-kvm-forum-2018.pdf (slides)

This patch adds a guide to secure coding practices.  This document
covers things that developers should know about security in QEMU.  It is
just a starting point that we can expand on later.  I hope it will be
useful as a resource for new contributors and will save code reviewers
from explaining the same concepts many times.

f8cf7147f1 docs: Provide separate conf.py for each manual we want
By default Sphinx wants to build a single manual at once.
For QEMU, this doesn't suit us, because we want to have
separate manuals for "Developer's Guide", "User Manual",
and so on, and we don't want to ship the Developer's Guide
to end-users. However, we don't want to completely duplicate
conf.py for each manual, and we'd like to continue to
support "build all docs in one run" for third-party sites
like readthedocs.org.

Make the top-level conf.py support two usage forms:
 (1) as a common config file which is included by the conf.py
 for each of QEMU's manuals: in this case sphinx-build is run
 multiple times, once per subdirectory.
 (2) as a top level conf file which will result in building all
 the manuals into a single document: in this case sphinx-build is
 run once, on the top-level docs directory.

Provide per-manual conf.py files and top level pages for
our first two manuals:
 * QEMU Developer's Guide (docs/devel)
 * QEMU System Emulation Management and Interoperability Guide
   (docs/interop)
