A new 'target' subelement of the pci-root controller has been
introduced having a 'hotplug' property. This property can be used to
turn off or turn on the ability to hotplug/unplug devices to the slots
of the pci-root.
The new element can be used like this:
<controller type='pci' model='pci-root'>
<target hotplug='off'/>
</controller>
This will turn off hotplug capability on the pci-root ports. To turn
the capability on, we set hotplug='on' above (which is also the
default).

Until libvirt 2.5.0 we didn't have a real process for release
notes in place, and we just published the list of commits that
had made it into each release, dividing them into categories that
mostly matched the sections we use today. Those documents haven't
been relevant for years, but they're still in the git repository
and collectively take up almost 2 MiB of disk space.
Let's import the only valuable piece of information they contain,
the release date for each libvirt versions, into the current
document and then drop them for good.

Instead of storing release notes as XML and then converting them
to HTML and ASCII at build time using XSLT and a custom script,
we can use reStructuredText as both the source and ASCII
representation and generate HTML from it using the same tooling
we already use for the rest of the documentation.
