Subject: [PATCH v2] Documentation: Document each netlink family

This is a simple script that parses the Netlink YAML spec files
(Documentation/netlink/specs/), and generates RST files to be rendered
in the Network -> Netlink Specification documentation page.

Create a python script that is invoked during 'make htmldocs', reads the
YAML specs located under Documentation/netlink/specs, parses one by one
and generates a correspondent RST file for each YAML file.

Create a new Documentation/networking/netlink_spec index page, and
reference each Netlink RST file that was processed above in this main
index.rst file.

In case of any exception during the parsing, dump the error and skip
the file.

Suggested-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@...nel.org>
Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao <leitao@...ian.org>

Changelog:

V2:
	* Moved the logic from a sphinx extension to a external script
	* Adjust some formatting as suggested by Donald Hunter and Jakub
	* Auto generating all the rsts instead of having stubs
	* Handling error gracefully
