Following the structure used in sysctl/kernel.rst, this updates abi.rst to use ReStructured Text more fully and updates the entries to match current kernels: * the list of files is now the table of contents; * links are used to point to other documentation and other sections; * all the existing entries are no longer present, so this removes them; * document vsyscall32. Mentions of the kernel version are dropped. Since the document is entirely rewritten, I've replaced the copyright statement.

Subroutine dump_struct uses type attributes to check if the struct syntax is valid. Then, it removes all attributes before using it for output. `____cacheline_aligned` is an attribute that is not included in both steps. Add it, since it is used by kernel structs. Based on previous patch to add ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp. Motivated by patches to reorder this attribute to before the variable name. Whilst we could do that in all cases, that would be a massive change and it is more common in the kernel to place this particular attribute after the variable name. A quick grep suggests approximately 400 instances of which 341 have this attribute just before a semicolon and hence after the variable name.

Cross-referencing to other documentation pages is possible using the :doc:`doc-file` directive from Sphinx. Add automatic markup for references to other documentation pages in the format Documentation/subfolder/doc-file.rst (the extension being optional). This requires that the path be passed all the way from the Documentation folder, which can be longer than passing a relative path through the :doc: directive, but avoids the markup, making the text cleaner when read in plain text.

The default way of building documentation is to use Sphinx toolchain installed via pip, inside the Kernel tree main directory.

So, add the directories created by running the commands suggested by the script.
