As promised, drop support for some ancient sphinx releases, along with a
lot of the cruft that was required to make that support work.

Currently, there's no way to exclude identifiers from
a kernel-doc markup. Add support for it.

Finding where an error like this was generated:
../lib/math/div64.c:73: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'kernel-api'.
Can take some time, as there's no glue about what kernel-doc
tag generated it. It is a way better to display it as:
.../Documentation/core-api/kernel-api:171: ../lib/math/div64.c:73: WARNING: Duplicate C declaration, also defined in 'kernel-api'.
Declaration is 'div_s64_rem'.

When kernel-doc is called via kerneldoc.py, there's no need to
auto-detect the Sphinx version, as the Sphinx module already
knows it. So, add an optional parameter to allow changing the
Sphinx dialect.
As kernel-doc can also be manually called, keep the auto-detection
logic if the parameter was not specified. On such case, emit
a warning if sphinx-build can't be found at PATH.
I ended using a suggestion from Joe for using a more readable
regex, instead of using a complex one with a hidden group like:
m/^(\d+)\.(\d+)(?:\.?(\d+)?)/
in order to get the optional <patch> argument.

The 'functions' directive is not only for functions, but also works for
structs/unions. So the name is misleading. This patch renames it to
'identifiers', which specific the functions/types to be included in
documentation. We keep the old name as an alias of the new one before
all documentation are updated.

AutoReporter is going away; recent versions of sphinx emit a warning like:
Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:125:
RemovedInSphinx20Warning: AutodocReporter is now deprecated.
Use sphinx.util.docutils.switch_source_input() instead.
Make the switch. But switch_source_input() only showed up in 1.7, so we
have to do ugly version checks to keep things working in older versions.

Recent versions of sphinx will emit messages like:
Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:103:
RemovedInSphinx20Warning: app.warning() is now deprecated.
Use sphinx.util.logging instead.
Switch to sphinx.util.logging to make this unsightly message go away.
Alas, that interface was only added in version 1.6, so we have to add a
version check to keep things working with older sphinxes.

When kernel-doc:: specified in .rst document without explicit directives,
it outputs both comment and DOC: sections. If a DOC: section was explicitly
included in the same document it will be duplicated. For example, the
output generated for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst [1] has "IDA
description" in the "IDA usage" section and in the middle of the API
reference.
This patch enables using "functions" directive without parameters to output
all the documentation excluding DOC: sections.

Sphinx 1.7 removed sphinx.util.compat.Directive so people
who have upgraded cannot build the documentation. Switch to
docutils.parsers.rst.Directive which has been available since
docutils 0.5 released in 2009.

On python3, Popen() universal_newlines=True converts the subprocess
stdout to unicode text using a codec based on user preferences. Given
LANG indicating ascii and utf-8 stdout from the subprocess, you'd get:
WARNING: kernel-doc '../scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno
../drivers/media/dvb-core/demux.h' processing failed with: 'ascii' codec can't
decode byte 0xe2 in position 6368: ordinal not in range(128)
Fix this by dropping universal_newlines=True and replacing the implicit
LANG specific decode with an explicit utf-8 decode. This also gets rid
of the annoying conditional code for python 2 vs. 3.
