c472736062 docs: newapi: Fix generation of type definition tables
Ensure that all rows have 3 columns and avoid generation of emtpy
elements which would be turned by the XML formatter into non-pair td/tr
tags which don't work properly with HTML5 parsers.

6f4485a453 docs: newapi: Avoid table where every row has an cell with 'colspan'
The HTML standard requires that a table column must include at least one
row which defines it exclusively, thus having a table where all rows
unite it via 'colspan' is illegal.

Modify the enum value generator to always output the description field
even when it's empty rather than uniting it, as in case when each value
doesn't have a description the generated document would violate the
standard.

47a8ff9979 docs: newapi: Avoid empty <div>s when there is no description
The various objects we generate API for may have empty description in
which case an empty div would be generated when processing the API
description. As we're using XML output mode the generator would shorten
such divs to the non-pair empty element version, which doesn't work well
with HTML5 parsers requiring a pair tag for <div>

Avoid empty description <div> elements altogether by skipping it if the
description is empty.

1fa7443dc7 docs: newapi.xsl: Generate docs on generic typedefs
We have plenty of generic typedefs (that basically just alias a
struct, or our popular virXXXPtr). Because we do not generate
HTML docs for it, the documentation is placed at random places,
e.g.: comment from virDomainPtr typedef ("a virDomainPtr is
pointer to a virDomain private structure ...") ends up after
virDomainProcessSignal enum block.

There are some less weird occurrences of this problem (e.g.
virBlkioParameterPtr), but yet - the typedef appears in TOC.

Therefore, generate a block for each typedef and put its
description there.

91d890bdce docs/html: Properly generate ACL permissions into API reference
The 'newapi.xsl' stylesheet was referencing non-existing paths to the
XML files holding ACL permission flags for individual APIs. Additionally
the 'document()' XSL function doesn't even allow concatenation of the
path as it was done via '{$builddir}/src..', but requires either direct
argument or use of the 'concat()' function.

This meant that the 'acls' variable was always empty and thus none of
our API documentation was actually generated with the 'acl' section.

Fix it by passing the path to the XML via an argument to the stylesheet
as the files differ based on which document is being generated.

Since the 'admin' API does not have ACL we need to handle it separately
now in the build system.

generates the 'libvirt-libvirt-lxc.html' page would try to format it

of the non-pair <pre>.

bdd3dfba15 docs: Format @variable properly
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.

eb7388b549 docs: relax CSS context match for pretty tables
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.

099a5ef8f0 docs: Span cells if there's not doc text for enum val

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.

which will cause the XSL transform to replace that <div>

for each libvirt object. This table is autogenerated
from the enums in src/access/viraccessperms.h by the

664ab2801d Add info about access control checks into API reference
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).
