    docs: attempt to document the general libvirt dev strategy · 557ac8cb
    Daniel P. Berrangé 提交于
    There are various ideas / plans floating around for future libvirt work,
    some of which is actively in progress. Historically we've never captured
    this kind of information anywhere, except in mailing list discussions.
    In particular guidelines in hacking.html.in don't appear until a policy
    is actively applied.
    
    This patch attempts to fill the documentation gap, by creating a new
    "strategy" page which outlines the general vision for some notable
    future changes. The key thing to note is that none of the stuff on this
    page is guaranteed, plans may change as new information arises. IOW this
    is a "best guess" as to the desired future.
    
    This doc has focused on three areas, related to the topic of language
    usage / consolidation
    
     - Use of non-C languages for the library, daemons or helper tools
     - Replacement of autotools with meson
     - Use of RST and Sphinx for documentation (website + man pages)
