Gerald Combs 94a0f7c641 Switch from AsciiDoc to Asciidoctor.
Switch the markup text processor for files in the docbook directory from
AsciiDoc to Asciidoctor. Asciidoctor has several useful features (such
as direct PDF output) and is actively developed. It's written in Ruby
but that dependency can be sidestepped with AsciidoctorJ, a
self-contained bundle that only depends on the JRE.

The current toolchain targets require Python, AsciiDoc, DocBook XML,
DocBook XSL, Java, FOP, xsltproc, lynx, and the HTMLHelp compiler:

HTML: AsciiDoc → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL
Chunked HTML: AsciiDoc → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL
PDF: AsciiDoc → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL → FOP
HTMLHelp: AsciiDoc → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL → HHC

This change removes the AsciiDoc and FOP requirements and adds either
AsciidoctorJ or Asciidoctor + Ruby:

HTML: Asciidoctor → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL
Chunked HTML: Asciidoctor → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL
PDF: Asciidoctor
HTMLHelp: Asciidoctor → DocBook XML → xsltproc + DocBook XSL → HHC

Ideally we could generate all of these using AsciidoctorJ, Java, and
lynx. Unfortunately we're not there yet.

The release notes depend on several macros (ws-buglink, ws-salink,
cve-idlink, sort-and-group). Add Asciidoctor (Ruby) equivalents.

Remove the BUILD_xxx_GUIDES CMake options and add various output targets
automatically. This means that you have to build the various documentation
targets explicitly.
