Currently, only the definition name is stored in the tree metadata; but
the node property is confusingly called "fullname". Rectify this by
always storing the FQN in the tree metadata.
... While we're here, re-organize the code in preparation for namespace
support to make it a bit easier to add additional components of the
FQN. With this change, there is now extremely little code left that's
taken directly from the Python domain :)

Add "the members of ..." pointers to Members and Arguments lists where
appropriate, with clickable cross-references - so it's a slight
improvement over the old system :)
This patch is meant to be a temporary solution until we can review and
merge the inliner.
The implementation of this patch is a little bit of a hack: Sphinx is
not designed to allow you to mix fields of different "type"; i.e. mixing
member descriptions and free-form text under the same heading. To
accomplish this with a minimum of hackery, we technically document a
"dummy field" and then just strip off the documentation for that dummy
field in a post-processing step. We use the "q_dummy" variable for this
purpose, then strip it back out before final processing. If this
processing step should fail, you'll see warnings for a bad
cross-reference. (So if you don't see any, it must be working!)

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
Since: Section SINCE
TODO: Section TODO
The qapi-schema tests are updated to account for the new section names;
"TODO" becomes "Todo" and `None` becomes "Plain" there.

Sphinx 5.3.0 to Sphinx 6.2.0 has a bug where nested content in an
ObjectDescription content block has its error position reported
incorrectly due to an oversight when they added nested section support
to this directive.
(This bug is present in Sphinx's own Python and C domains; test it
yourself by creating a py:func directive and creating a syntax error in
the directive's content block. The reporting will be incorrect.)
To avoid overriding and re-implementing the entirety of the run()
method, a workaround is employed where we parse the content block
ourselves in before_content(), then null the content block to make
Sphinx's own parsing a no-op. Then, in transform_content (which occurs
after Sphinx's nested parse), we simply swap our own parsed content tree
back in for Sphinx's.
It appears a little tricky, but it's the nicest solution I can find.

This commit, finally, adds cross-referencing support to various field
lists; modeled tightly after Sphinx's own Python domain code.
Cross-referencing support is added to type names provided to :arg:,
:memb:, :returns: and :choice:.
:feat:, :error: and :value:, which do not take type names, do not
support this syntax.
The general syntax is simple:
:arg TypeName ArgName: Lorem Ipsum ...
The domain will transform TypeName into :qapi:type:`TypeName` in this
basic case, and also apply the ``literal`` decoration to indicate that
this is a type cross-reference.
For optional arguments, the special "?" suffix is used. Because "*" has
special meaning in rST that would cause parsing errors, we elect to use
"?" instead. The special syntax processing strips this character from
the end of any type name argument and will append ", optional" to the
rendered output, applying the cross-reference only to the actual type
name.
The intent here is that the actual syntax in doc-blocks need not change;
but e.g. qapidoc.py will need to process and transform "@arg foo lorem
ipsum" into ":arg type? foo: lorem ipsum" based on the schema
information. Therefore, nobody should ever actually witness this
intermediate syntax unless they are writing manual documentation or the
doc transmogrifier breaks.
For array arguments, type names can similarly be surrounded by "[]",
which are stripped off and then re-appended outside of the
cross-reference.

Normally, Sphinx will silently fall back to its standard field list
processing if it doesn't match one of your defined fields. A lot of the
time, that's not what we want - we want to be warned if we goof
something up.
For instance, the canonical argument field list form is:
:arg type name: descr
This form is captured by Sphinx and transformed so that the field label
will become "Arguments:". It's possible to omit the type name and descr
and still have it be processed correctly. However, if you omit the type
name, Sphinx no longer recognizes it:
:arg: this is not recognized.
This will turn into an arbitrary field list entry whose label is "Arg:",
and it otherwise silently fails. You may also see failures for doing
things like using :values: instead of :value:, or :errors: instead of
:error:, and so on. It's also case sensitive, and easy to trip up.
Add a validator that guarantees all field list entries that are the
direct child of an ObjectDescription use only recognized forms of field
lists, and emit a warning (treated as error by default in most build
configurations) whenever we detect one that is goofed up.
However, there's still benefit to allowing arbitrary fields -- they are
after all not a Sphinx invention, but perfectly normal docutils
syntax. Create an allow list for known spellings we don't mind letting
through, but warn against anything else.

makes this information very hard to miss.
The forthcoming Transmogrifier in qapidoc.py will add this option
whenever it detects that the features list attached to a definition
contains the "deprecated" entry.
P.S., I outsourced the CSS ;)

Adds the .. qapi:object:: directive, object, and :qapi:obj:`name`
cross-referencing role. This directive is meant to document both structs
and unions.
As per usual, QAPI cross-referencing for types in the member field list
will be added in a forthcoming commit.

Adds the .. qapi:event:: directive, object, and :qapi:event:`name`
cross-referencing role.
Adds the :memb type name: field list syntax for documenting event data
members. As this syntax and phrasing will be shared with Structs and
Unions as well, add the field list definition to a shared abstract
class.
As per usual, QAPI cross-referencing for types in the member field list
will be added in a forthcoming commit.

Add the .. qapi:alternate:: directive, object, and qapi:alt:`name`
cross-reference role.
Add the "Alternatives:" field list for describing alternate choices. Like
other field lists that reference QAPI types, a forthcoming commit will
add cross-referencing support to this field.

Add the .. qapi:enum:: directive, object, and :qapi:enum:`name`
cross-reference role.
Add the :value name: field list for documenting Enum values.
Of note, also introduce a new "type" role that is intended to be used by
other QAPI object directives to cross-reference arbitrary QAPI type
names, but will exclude commands, events, and modules from
consideration.

Add "Return:" field list syntax to QAPI Commands.
Like "Arguments:" and "Errors:", the type name isn't currently processed
for cross-referencing, but this will be addressed in a forthcoming
commit.
The syntax of the new field is:
:return TypeName: description
description cont'd
This patch adds "Return" as a GroupedField, which means that multiple
return values can be annotated - this is only done because Sphinx does
not support mandatory type arguments to Ungrouped fields. Because we
want to cross-reference this type information later, we want to make the
type argument mandatory. As a result, you can technically add multiple
:return: fields, though I'm not aware of any circumstance in which you'd
need or want to. Recommendation: "Don't do that, then." The forthcoming
QAPIDoc transmogrifier does not, in fact, ever "do that".
