documentation: convert docbook to asciidoc
Many years ago, documentation in fvwm went from raw manpages to docbook format as a canonical source. The idea was that this horrific XML source could generate both manpages and HTML files. This worked fine, however it meant that writing documentation became an horrendous chore -- the XML markup was verbose, unsightly and got in the way of actually documenting anything. Although markup languages have an overhead, asciidoc seems like a good replacement for bringing back the documentation to as close to plain text as possible -- and can still generate the single-source files to other output formats beyond just man pages. This commit does a few things: * Converts roff output to asciidoc (originally via Pandoc) * Removes docbook support * Hooks in asciidoc * Updates CI/CD The asciidoc generator of choice is `asciidoctor`. HTML generation of documentation has been removed. Hence, the option of `--enable-htmldoc` via `./configure` no longer exists. Although this commit should be several small ones, getting this to build incrementally is difficult.
