Add explicit validation for QAPI documentation formatting rules:
1. Lines must not exceed 70 columns in width (including '# ' prefix)
2. Sentences must be separated by two spaces
Example sections and literal :: blocks (seldom case) are excluded, we
don't require them to be <= 70, that would be too restrictive. Anyway,
they share common 80-columns recommendations (not requirements).
Add two simple tests, illustrating the change.

We have several kinds of sections, and to tell them apart, we use
Section attribute @tag and also the section object's Python type:
type @tag
untagged Section None
@foo: ArgSection 'foo'
Returns: Section 'Returns'
Errors: Section 'Errors'
Since: Section 'Since'
TODO: Section 'TODO'
Note:
* @foo can be a member or a feature description, depending on context.
* tag == 'Since' can be a Since: section or a member or feature
description. If it's a Section, it's the former, and if it's an
ArgSection, it's the latter.
Clean this up as follows. Move the member or feature name to new
ArgSection attribute @name, and replace @tag by enum @kind like this:
type kind name
untagged Section PLAIN
@foo: ArgSection MEMBER 'foo' if member or argument
ArgSection FEATURE 'foo' if feature
Returns: Section RETURNS
Errors: Section ERRORS

camel_to_upper() converts its argument from camel case to upper case
with '_' between words. Used for generated enumeration constant
prefixes.
When some of the words are spelled all caps, where exactly to insert
'_' is guesswork. camel_to_upper()'s guesses are bad enough in places
to make people override them with a 'prefix' in the schema.
Rewrite it to guess better:
1. Insert '_' after a non-upper case character followed by an upper
case character:
OneTwo -> ONE_TWO
One2Three -> ONE2_THREE
2. Insert '_' before the last upper case character followed by a
non-upper case character:
ACRONYMWord -> ACRONYM_Word
Except at the beginning (as in OneTwo above), or when there is
already one:
AbCd -> AB_CD
This changes the default enumeration constant prefix for a number of
enums. Generated enumeration constants change only where the default
is not overridden with 'prefix'.

Fully eliminate the "Example" sections in QAPI doc blocks now that they
have all been converted to arbitrary rST syntax using the
".. qmp-example::" directive. Update tests to match.
Migrating to the new syntax
---------------------------
The old "Example:" or "Examples:" section syntax is now caught as an
error, but "Example::" is stil permitted as explicit rST syntax for an
un-lexed, generic preformatted text block.
('Example' is not special in this case, any sentence that ends with "::"
will start an indented code block in rST.)
Arbitrary rST for Examples is now possible, but it's strongly
recommended that documentation authors use the ".. qmp-example::"
directive for consistent visual formatting in rendered HTML docs. The
":title:" directive option may be used to add extra information into the
title bar for the example. The ":annotated:" option can be used to write
arbitrary rST instead, with nested "::" blocks applying QMP formatting
where desired.
Other choices available are ".. code-block:: QMP" which will not create
an "Example:" box, or the short-form "::" code-block syntax which will
not apply QMP highlighting when used outside of the qmp-example
directive.
Why?
----
This patch has several benefits:
1. Example sections can now be written more arbitrarily, mixing
explanatory paragraphs and code blocks however desired.
2. Example sections can now use fully arbitrary rST.
3. All code blocks are now lexed and validated as QMP; increasing
usability of the docs and ensuring validity of example snippets.
(To some extent - This patch only gaurantees it lexes correctly, not
that it's valid under the JSON or QMP grammars. It will catch most
small mistakes, however.)
4. Each qmp-example can be titled or annotated independently without
bypassing the QMP lexer/validator.
(i.e. code blocks are now for *code* only, so we don't have to
sacrifice exposition for having lexically valid examples.)
NOTE: As with the "Notes" conversion (d461c27973), this patch (and the
three preceding) may change the rendering order for Examples in
the current generator. The forthcoming qapidoc rewrite will fix
this by always generating documentation in source order.

[Indentation tweaked for consistency]
Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
We do not need a dedicated section for notes. By eliminating a specially
parsed section, these notes can be treated as normal rST paragraphs in
the new QMP reference manual, and can be placed and styled much more
flexibly.
Convert all existing "Note" and "Notes" sections to pure rST. As part of
the conversion, capitalize the first letter of each sentence and add
trailing punctuation where appropriate to ensure notes look sensible and
consistent in rendered HTML documentation. Markup is also re-aligned to
the de-facto standard of 3 spaces for directives.
Update docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst to reflect the new paradigm, and
update the QAPI parser to prohibit "Note" sections while suggesting a
new syntax. The exact formatting to use is a matter of taste, but a good
candidate is simply:
.. note:: lorem ipsum ...
... dolor sit amet ...
... consectetur adipiscing elit ...
... but there are other choices, too. The Sphinx readthedocs theme
offers theming for the following forms (capitalization unimportant); all
are adorned with a (!) symbol () in the title bar for rendered HTML
docs.
See
https://sphinx-rtd-theme.readthedocs.io/en/stable/demo/demo.html#admonitions
for examples of each directive/admonition in use.
These are rendered in orange:
.. Attention:: ...
.. Caution:: ...
.. WARNING:: ...
These are rendered in red:
.. DANGER:: ...
.. Error:: ...
These are rendered in green:
.. Hint:: ...
.. Important:: ...
.. Tip:: ...
These are rendered in blue:
.. Note:: ...
.. admonition:: custom title
admonition body text
This patch uses ".. note::" almost everywhere, with just two "caution"
directives. Several instances of "Notes:" have been converted to
merely ".. note::", or multiple ".. note::" where appropriate.
".. admonition:: notes" is used in a few places where we had an
ordered list of multiple notes that would not make sense as
standalone/separate admonitions. Two "Note:" following "Example:"
have been turned into ordinary paragraphs within the example.
NOTE: Because qapidoc.py does not attempt to preserve source ordering of
sections, the conversion of Notes from a "tagged section" to an
"untagged section" means that rendering order for some notes *may
change* as a result of this patch. The forthcoming qapidoc.py rewrite
strictly preserves source ordering in the rendered documentation, so
this issue will be rectified in the new generator.

Change get_doc_indented() to preserve indentation on all subsequent text
lines, and create a compatibility dedent() function for qapidoc.py that
removes indentation the same way get_doc_indented() did.
This is being done for the benefit of a new qapidoc generator which
requires that indentation in argument and features sections are
preserved.
Prior to this patch, a section like this:
```
@name: lorem ipsum
dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscing elit
```
would have its body text be parsed into:
```
lorem ipsum
dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscing elit
```
We want to preserve the indentation for even the first body line so that
the entire block can be parsed directly as rST. This patch would now
parse that segment into:
```
lorem ipsum
dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscing elit
```
This is helpful for formatting arguments and features as field lists in
rST, where the new generator will format this information as:
```
:arg type name: lorem ipsum
dolor sit amet
consectetur apidiscing elit
```
...and can be formed by the simple concatenation of the field list
construct and the body text. The indents help preserve the continuation
of a block-level element, and further allow the use of additional rST
block-level constructs such as code blocks, lists, and other such
markup.
This understandably breaks the existing qapidoc.py; so a new function is
added there to dedent the text for compatibility. Once the new generator
is merged, this function will not be needed any longer and can be
dropped.
I verified this patch changes absolutely nothing by comparing the
md5sums of the QMP ref html pages both before and after the change, so
it's certified inert. QAPI test output has been updated to reflect the
new strategy of preserving indents for rST.

The test compares Sphinx plain-text output against a golden reference.
To work on Windows hosts, it filters out carriage returns in both

The QAPI generator forces you to document your stuff. Except for
command arguments, event data, and members of enum and object types:
these the generator silently "documents" as "Not documented".
We can't require proper documentation there without first fixing all
the offenders. We've always had too many offenders to pull that off.
Right now, we have more than 500. Worse, we seem to fix old ones no
faster than we add new ones: in the past year, we fixed 22 ones, but
added 26 new ones.
To help arrest the backsliding, make missing documentation an error
unless the command, type, or event is in listed in new pragma
documentation-exceptions.
List all the current offenders: 117 commands and types in qapi/, and 9
in qga/.

[Conflict with commit 3e32dca3f0 resolved]
The QAPI schema doc comment language provides special syntax for
command and event arguments, struct and union members, alternate
branches, enumeration values, and features: descriptions starting with
"@name:".
By convention, we format them like this:
# @name: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit,
# sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore
# magna aliqua.
Okay for names as short as "name", but we have much longer ones. Their
description gets squeezed against the right margin, like this:
# @dirty-sync-missed-zero-copy: Number of times dirty RAM synchronization could
# not avoid copying dirty pages. This is between
# 0 and @dirty-sync-count * @multifd-channels.
# (since 7.1)
The description text is effectively just 50 characters wide. Easy
enough to read, but can be cumbersome to write.
The awkward squeeze against the right margin makes people go beyond it,
which produces two undesirables: arguments about style, and descriptions
that are unnecessarily hard to read, like this one:
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime: list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is
# only present when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability
# is enabled. (Since 3.0)
We could instead format it like
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime:
# list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is only present
# when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability is
# enabled. (Since 3.0)
or, since the commit before previous, like
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime:
# list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is only present
# when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability is
# enabled. (Since 3.0)
However, I'd rather have
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime: list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU.
# This is only present when the postcopy-blocktime migration
# capability is enabled. (Since 3.0)
because this is how rST field and option lists work.
To get this, we need to let the first non-blank line after the
"@name:" line determine expected indentation.
This fills up the indentation pitfall mentioned in
docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst. A related pitfall still exists. Update
the text to show it.

[Work around lack of walrus operator in Python 3.7 and older]
When an argument's description starts on the line after the "#arg: "
line, indentation is stripped only from the description's first line,
as demonstrated by the previous commit. Moreover, subsequent lines
with less indentation are not rejected.
Make the first line's indentation the expected indentation for the
remainder of the description. This fixes indentation stripping, and
also requires at least that much indentation.

The C code generator fails to honor 'if' conditions of command and
event arguments.
For instance, tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json has
{ 'event': 'TEST_IF_EVENT',
'data': { 'foo': 'TestIfStruct',
'bar': { 'type': ['str'], 'if': 'TEST_IF_EVT_ARG' } },
'if': { 'all': ['TEST_IF_EVT', 'TEST_IF_STRUCT'] } }
Generated tests/test-qapi-events.h fails to honor the TEST_IF_EVT_ARG
condition:
#if defined(TEST_IF_EVT) && defined(TEST_IF_STRUCT)
void qapi_event_send_test_if_event(TestIfStruct *foo, strList *bar);
#endif /* defined(TEST_IF_EVT) && defined(TEST_IF_STRUCT) */
Only uses so far are in tests/.
We could fix the generator to emit something like
#if defined(TEST_IF_EVT) && defined(TEST_IF_STRUCT)
void qapi_event_send_test_if_event(TestIfStruct *foo
#if defined(TEST_IF_EVT_ARG)
, strList *bar
#endif
);
#endif /* defined(TEST_IF_EVT) && defined(TEST_IF_STRUCT) */
Ugly. Calls become similarly ugly. Not worth fixing.
Conditional arguments work fine with 'boxed': true, simply because
complex types with conditional members work fine. Not worth breaking.
Reject conditional arguments unless boxed.
Move the tests cases covering unboxed conditional arguments out of
tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json. Cover boxed conditional
arguments there instead.
