931c1d128d syntax-check: Don't forbid curly braces around single line condition body
This syntax rule doesn't make much sense, especially if there are so
much exceptions to it. Just remove it and adjust the coding style.

95b9db4ee2 lib: Prefer WITH_* prefix for #if conditionals
Currently, we are mixing: #if HAVE_BLAH with #if WITH_BLAH.
Things got way better with Pavel's work on meson, but apparently,
mixing these two lead to confusing and easy to miss bugs (see
31fb929eca for instance). While we were forced to use HAVE_
prefix with autotools, we are free to chose our own prefix with
meson and since WITH_ prefix appears to be more popular let's use
it everywhere.

Use https: links for websites that support them.

The URIs which are used as namespace identifiers
are left alone.

866bb99644 docs: point out that locals should be defined at the top of a block of code
Although we have nothing in make syntax-check to enforce this, and
apparently there are places where it isn't the case (according to
Dan), we should discourage the practice of defining new variables in
the middle of a block of code.

f42be8a2ef docs: Use definition list instead of table in coding style
This format is much easier to tweak and update.

5155f6f4b1 docs: Add coding-style.rst
This part represents the biggest chunk of the existing hacking.rst, and
despite that its utility is very limited because 'make syntax-check'
already guarantees most of the rules are followed over time.

Until the glorious day we finally codify our coding style completely
into a configuration for a tool such as clang-format and thus no longer
need a plain English description of it, move this part to a separate
page.
