818652619d Convert all remaining Markdown files to reStructuredText
We've adopted reStructuredText as the primary markup language for
our documentation and, given that both GitLab and GitHub can render
documents in this format just fine, it makes sense to get rid of
the few last remaining bits of Markdown and standardize on
reStructuredText across the board.

2621d48f00 gnulib: delete all gnulib integration
This deletes all trace of gnulib from libvirt. We still
have the keycodemapdb submodule to deal with. The simple
solution taken was to update it when running autogen.sh.

Previously gnulib could auto-trigger refresh when running
'make' too. We could figure out a solution for this, but
with the pending meson rewrite it isn't worth worrying
about, given how infrequently keycodemapdb changes.

71d3098e59 bootstrap.conf: drop gnulib tests from libvirt
We are in process of removing gnulib and adopting meson as our build
system.  In order to help with the transition let's drop gnulib tests.

This will also help with the fact that before we will be able to drop
gnulib completely we will store output of bootstrap in git.

3e3cad5238 ci: Fetch list of available container images dynamically
Any static list of images is destined to become outdated eventually,
so let's start generating it dynamically instead.

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a straightforward way to get
Podman/Docker to list all repositories under quay.io/libvirt, so we
have to resort to searching and filtering manually; and since the
two tools behave slightly differently in that regard, it's more
sane to have the logic in a separate shell script than it would be
to keep it inline in the Makefile with all the annoying escaping
doing so would entail.

This reverts commit f38d553e2d.

Gnulib's make coverage (or init-coverage, build-coverage, gen-coverage)
is not a 1-1 replacement for the original configure option. Our old
--enable-test-coverage seems to be close to gnulib's make build-coverage
except gnulib runs lcov in that phase and the build actually fails for
me even before lcov is run. And since we want to be able to just build
libvirt without running lcov, I suggest reverting to our own
implementation.

89f8902a68 tests: add targets for building libvirt inside Docker containers
The Travis CI system uses Docker containers for its build environment.
These are pre-built and hosted under quay.io/libvirt so that developers
can use them for reproducing problems locally.

Getting the right Docker command syntax to use them, however, is not
entirely easy. This patch addresses that usability issue by introducing
some make targets. To run a simple build (aka 'make all') using the
Fedora 28 container:

   make ci-build@fedora-28

To also run unit tests

   make ci-check@fedora-28

This is just syntax sugar for calling the previous command with a
custom make target

   make ci-build@fedora-28 CI_MAKE_ARGS="check"

To do a purely interactive build it is possible to request a shell

   make ci-shell@fedora-28

To do a MinGW build, it is currently possible to use the fedora-rawhide
image and request a different configure script

   make ci-build@fedora-rawhide CI_CONFIGURE=mingw32-configure

It is also possible to do cross compiled builds via the Debian containers

   make ci-build@debian-9-cross-s390x

In all cases the GIT source tree is cloned locally into a 'ci-tree/src'
sub-directory which is then exposed to the container at '/src'. It is
setup to use a separate build directory so the build takes place in a
subdir '/src/build'. A source tree build can be requested instead
by passing an empty string CI_VPATH= arg to make.

The make rules are kept in a standalone file that is included into the
main Makefile.am, so that it is possible to run them without having to
invoke autotools first.

It is neccessary to disable the gnulib submodule commit check because
this fails due to the way we have manually cloned submodule repos as
primary git repos with their own .git directory, instead of letting
git treat them as submodules in the top level .git directory.

d5cbf85f1a build-aux: ensure all scripts are included in EXTRA_DIST
Few of the scripts in build-aux are included in EXTRA_DIST. This is not
a serious problem since they are primarily tools intended for developers
upstream, and downstream builds won't need them. Having them missing,
however, complicates downstream patching because it means patches that
are auto-exported from git will fail to apply if they include a change
to a file in build-aux/.  By bundling all these scripts in the dist we
make patching more straightforward.

be819ebece maint: Drop ChangeLog-old
This file contains the old school ChangeLog, which was manually
updated for every set of changes before the switch to git.

When libvirt was imported into git, however, *all* history was
preserved, including the changes documented in this file, and
can still be inspected using 'git log' just like more recent
changes: the format might be slightly different, but that's not
quite reason enough to treat this file any differently than the
git-generated ChangeLog we just dropped.

ce97c33a79 maint: Stop generating ChangeLog from git
Our ChangeLog is generated by basically redirecting the output
of 'git log' into it so, as can be expected, it has only gotten
bigger as development has progressed. As of today, its size has
reached pretty much comical levels:

  $ du -sk ChangeLog
  11328 ChangeLog

All of that for information *literally nobody* cares about: end
users and distro maintainers have proper release notes lovingly
compiled for them, while developers peruse the history either by
calling 'git log' directly or through their favorite $EDITOR's
git integration.

Replacing the generated ChangeLog with a short message pointing
interested parties to the git repository does not only reduce
the size of the unpacked sources from 259904 KiB to 248576 KiB
(~4% saving): from a quick test on my laptop, doing so reduces
the size of the *compressed* release archive from 15140 KiB to
12364 KiB (~18% saving) and also takes the time needed to run
'make distcheck' down from 4:44 to 4:21 (~8% saving).

f38d553e2d configure: Remove --enable-test-coverage
We provide a custom configure option --enable-test-coverage and
'make cov' target to generate code coverage reports. However gnulib
already provides a 'make coverage' which 'just works' and doesn't
require a special configure option.

This drops our custom implementation in favor of 'make coverage'.
Reports are now output to cov/index.html

cfdc0c771a Forget last daemon/ dir artefacts
The most important part is LIBVIRTD_PATH env var fix. It is used
in virFileFindResourceFull() from tests. The libvirtd no longer
lives under daemon/.

Then, libvirtd-fail test was still failing (as expected) but not
because of missing config file but because it was trying to
execute (nonexistent) top_builddir/daemon/libvirtd which
fulfilled expected outcome and thus test did not fail.

Thirdly, lcov was told to generate coverage for daemon/ dir too.

Fourthly, our compiling documentation was still suggesting to run
daemonn/libvirtd.

And finally, some comments in a systemtap file and a probes file
were still referring to daemon/libvirtd.

94d1f273ba AUTHORS: Avoid duplicated entries
Instead of simply dumping the list of authors as obtained
from git, we can be a bit smarter and filter out maintainers
so that their names don't appear twice.
