When documenting our public API in some places we use '@' to
refer to the variable. For instance:
* This API tries to set guest time to the given value. The time
* to set (@seconds and @nseconds) should be in seconds relative
* to the Epoch of 1970-01-01 00:00:00 in UTC.
However, when generating HTML documentation these tokens are
copied verbatim. What we can do is drop the '@' character and
wrap the variable in <code/> so that it is formatted properly.
Due to the way we 'parse' docs a token might actually be slightly
more than just '@variable'. For instance in the example above we
will have the following tokens: '(@seconds' and '@nseconds)'.
Thus we need to handle possible substring before and after
variable.

The meson conversion lost the <meta> tags providing the go-import,
because the "$pagename" variable lost the .html suffix. Rather
than fix that, just change to using "$pagesrc" instead, as it is a
better fit.
The 404 page also needs to use absolute links to work correctly for
pages in sub-folders.

We currently only render pretty tables if they have the "top_table"
class set. All of our tables set this, except for the ACL & migration
doc tables, which should have set it, and the API reference which does
not want it.
Simplify life by rendering all tables in a pretty style and remove the
need for the "top_table" class entirely. A small rule turns off the
pretty style for the API reference where tables are a hack used to
render enums with horizontal alignment.

According to HTML specification, <a name=''> works in HTML4, but
<a id=''> works in both HTML4 and HTML5. This is followed even in
docs/page.xsl where HTML bookmark links are generated only for
those anchors which have @id attribute.

Use 'id' instead of 'name' for anchors which adds the hidden clickable
headerlink helper so it's way simpler to link to a specific part of the
docs.

The HTML5 doctype is simply
<!DOCTYPE html>
no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.
XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

When generating HTML documentation we put enum values into a
table so that we can display the value's name, numerical value
and description (if it has one). Now the last part is problem. If
the value doesn't have description the table row has just two
cells and if it has one the row counts three cells. This makes
HTML engines render the description into very little space - for
instance see:
html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#virDomainMemoryStatTags
We can avoid this problem if we let the cell that corresponds to
numerical value span over two cells if there's no description.

This adds two new pages to the website, acl.html describing
the general access control framework and permissions models,
and aclpolkit.html describing the use of polkit as an
access control driver.
page.xsl is modified to support a new syntax
<div id="include" filename="somefile.htmlinc"/>
which will cause the XSL transform to replace that <div>
with the contents of 'somefile.htmlinc'. We use this in
the acl.html.in file, to pull the table of permissions
for each libvirt object. This table is autogenerated
from the enums in src/access/viraccessperms.h by the
genaclperms.pl script.
newapi.xsl is modified so that the list of permissions
checks shown against each API will link to the description
of the permissions in acl.html

So that app developers / admins know what access control checks
are performed for each API, this patch extends the API docs
generator to include details of the ACLs for each.
The gendispatch.pl script is extended so that it generates
a simple XML describing ACL rules, eg.
<aclinfo>
...
<api name='virConnectNumOfDomains'>
<check object='connect' perm='search_domains'/>
<filter object='domain' perm='getattr'/>
</api>
<api name='virDomainAttachDeviceFlags'>
<check object='domain' perm='write'/>
<check object='domain' perm='save' flags='!VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG|VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_LIVE'/>
<check object='domain' perm='save' flags='VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG'/>
</api>
...
</aclinfo>
The newapi.xsl template loads the XML files containing the ACL
rules and generates a short block of HTML for each API describing
the parameter checks and return value filters (if any).

In CSS the following class names are available:
* keyword (keywords like "typedef", "struct")
* type (types like "int", "void*")
* comment (comments after members of enums or structs)
* directive (preprocessor directives, #define)
* undisclosed (text saying that the API is not public)
Additionally, kill all of the left-over "programlisting" class
assignments. There are no CSS rules for them.

Libvirt's HTML documentation is not as easy to the eyes as it could
be since long text has no visual breaks.
Take advantage of the formatting in documentation comments and wrap
each part separated by two consecutive \n into a HTML <p> element.
Currently only tabs and blanks are used for tokenizing the description,
which breaks when a term is at the end of a line or has () appended to
it.
1. Use also other white space characters such as new-lines and carriage
return for splitting.
2. Remove some common non-word characters from the token before lookup.

This fixes a number of issues most of them raised by Eric Blake on the
generated documentation output:
- parsing of "long long int" and similar
- add parsing of unions within a struct
- remove spurious " * " fron comments on structure fields and enums
- fix concatenation of base type and name in arrays
- extend XSLT to cope with union in structs
* docs/apibuild.py: fix and extend API extraction tool
* docs/newapi.xsl: extend the stylesheets to cope with union in
public structures
* docs/ChangeLog.xsl docs/newapi.xsl docs/site.xsl: change all
stylesheets to output UTF-8 HTML instead of ISO Latin 1 which was
breaking on some people names.
