This reverts commit 37fc2cf5, since it
introduces configure.ac changes that depend on very very new autoconf
macros that are not present in current stable distros (and it was not
advertised as such).

Currently we use a static value for the socat path, or we trust the
user-provided one. With this patch we still trust any user provided
value, but if none is passed we check for socat on the machine we're
being configured on. This allows us also to check if we can or cannot
use the escape= feature in socat.

If the user has forced the path in, he can also pass --with-socat-escape
in order to force the escape functionality to be used, even if a check
is not done.

I forgot to bump the configure.ac version before tagging the 2.1.0~beta1
release. Since we cannot remove old tags (see “On Re-tagging” in git-tag(1)),
we have to call this release 2.1.0~beta2.

This patch adds three optional parameters:
  - 'use_bootloader', whether use or not the bootloader
  - 'bootloader_path', absolute path to the bootloader
  - 'bootloader_args', extra arguments to the bootloader

Syntax:
  gnt-cluster modify --hypervisor-parameters \
    xen-pvm:bootloader_path=/usr/bin/pygrub,use_bootloader=False
  gnt-instance modify -H use_bootloader=True instance1.example.com

If use_bootloader is True, each domU can boot with its own kernel
instead of using the dom0 kernel.

This big patch converts the documentation build system to sphinx
(http://sphinx.pocoo.org/

). Since that uses reStructuredText sources
too, there is no change (yet) in the documents themselves, just in the
build system.

As before, the docs are pre built by the maintainer, and the end-user
doesn't need sphinx or other rst tools to build the docs. Note that we
are not distributing PDFs, so building that will require the tools.

The docs will be stored under doc/html and the build system also need an
extra directory doc/build. These are considered (by automake)
maintainer-related objects and are removed at maintainer-clean time.

The patch also fixes some small issues: add a docpng variable, add
doc/api (also generated by maintainer) in maintainer-clean-local, etc.

This patch changes the way documentation is built in order to distribute
the generated output in the 'dist' archive, and thus no longer
requiring the presence of the docbook/rst toolchains during build time.
This will lower the requirements for installation and also makes the
build time insignificant.

First, we remove the docbook2pdf rules and variables, since we no longer
build this kind of docs. Furthermore, the rst source files are not
(today) processed via replace_vars_sed, so the whole .in rules for doc/
go away.

Next, we change the ".sgml|.rst -> replace_vars_sed -> .in -> processor
-> final file" processing to ".sgml|.rst -> generator -> .in ->
replace_vars_sed -> final file"; this means we first process the file
using the formatter, with the @VARIABLE@ entries in it, and save the
output as .in; this output we distribute, and on the user side, the
replace_vars_sed will use the new configure flags to transform the
(almost final .in form) to the final form, without needing the
toolchain.

In configure.ac we also change from ERROR to WARN for the documentation
generators, and extra tests in Makefile.am check that the programs have
been found.

This was tested with distcheck and works as expected.

This patch adds the paths for searching for instance allocators and
makes the LUTestAllocator code run the allocator and return the results
if the direction specified is 'out'. 'out' means that the opcode will
return the result of the allocator run, instead of the allocator input
file ('in').

The patch unifies all names to refer to 'iallocator' instead of plain
allocator.

The patch also adds an example allocator that can be used for testing
this new functionality.

Having the individual parts in the code allows us to build version
numbers like "1.2" while leaving "3" out in a clean fashion, that is
without regular expressions or the like. This might be used together
with configuration format versions.

Why m4 code? AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, which could take a shell variable, is
considered deprecated[1] and should be replaced by AC_INIT. Unfortunately,
AC_INIT is expanded at build time, so one has to use m4 to build
composite values like this version number[2].
