Add the ability to configure a qemu-vdagent in guest domains. This
device is similar to the spice vdagent channel except that qemu handles
the spice-vdagent protocol messages itself rather than routing them over
a spice protocol channel.
The qemu-vdagent device has two notable configuration options which
determine whether qemu will handle particular vdagent features:
'clipboard' and 'mouse'.
The 'clipboard' option allows qemu to synchronize its internal clipboard
manager with the guest clipboard, which enables client<->guest clipboard
synchronization for non-spice guests such as vnc.
The 'mouse' option allows absolute mouse positioning to be sent over the
vdagent channel rather than using a usb or virtio tablet device.
Sample configuration:
<channel type='qemu-vdagent'>
<target type='virtio' name='com.redhat.spice.0'/>
<source>
<clipboard copypaste='yes'/>
<mouse mode='client'/>
</source>
</channel>

Docutils-0.17 switched to using <main> instead of a <div
class='document'> and <section> instead of <div class='section'>.
To ensure that our pages still work we need to slightly adapt our XSL
stylesheet to select the <main> tag properly and adapt the CSS to also
select the 'section' element instead of a class and to apply to a <main>
tag with the appropriate names.
Docutils-0.17 also changed to use 'h2' for section heading instead of
'h1'.
Note the styles applied to the 'main' element with certain id can't be
made more universal by just applying to the id itself, as in certain
cases (e.g. 'documentation') we also have sections with that name. This
was previously ensured by also matching the 'document' class which would
make it equal to the 'main' element.
