We removed some documentation from the table of contents but left them
around in the published documentation. All of these documents are
obsolete and haven't been updated since they were last validated on
earlier versions of ACRN. (They all can still be referenced in the
older version archives if needed.)

Change the generated config option documentation to use the DX-friendly
names defined for the configurator UI (instead of the XML element name
hierarchy previously used).
Options are grouped by the top-level section (aka complex type) they
belong to and then sorted alphabetically with these groups.
Use badges to indicate where options can be found in the configurator UI
and whether they're applicable to the Hypervisor or Pre/Post/Service VM.
Add a custom css style for the config-option doc that puts the first
paragraph of a glossary item on the same line as the glossary term so
these badges look pretty.
Added a acrn-custom.js patch that copies the alt text for images into a
title property for images within the config-doc document. This provides
tooltip text when hovering over the badges.
Don't display options not visible in the configurator UI (elements with
acrn:views="").
A missing acrn:views or acrn:applicable-vm means we look for an
applicable value from an ancestor element.
Add processing of a second xs:documentation element within an
xs:annotation element. This second documentation element's content will
be appended as a new paragraph to the first xs:documentation content in
the generated documentation. Only the first xs:documentation element is
used by the Configurator for its tooltips.
Update documents that were referring to options by their XML names.
Because we're now using a glossary to provide links to config options,
we can't duplicate option names or glosary names anywhere in the doc
set.

Remove device name requirement for “tap” and "vmnet", change the
parameter format like:
"-s 4,virtio-net,tap/vmnet=dev_name".
change mac_seed to virtio-net sub-parameter
As a parameter of acrn-dm,the mac_seed is only used for virtio-net.
So this patch change it to the sub-parameter of virtio-net.
The final format is:
-s 4,virtio-net,tap/vmnet=dev_name,mac_seed=XXXX

As is recommended by UX/DX reviews, the per-VM console virtual UART is now
limited to the following choices:
- Disabled
- a COM port from COM1 to COM4
- PCI based
This patch converts the schema of scenario XMLs to integrate this
recommendation and add logic in the scenario upgrader to migrate data from
old scenario XMLs.
v1 -> v2:
* Update the static allocators and C source transformers according to the
new console vUART config item.

Last year, GitHub announced the deprecation of the unsecured Git

Acrn driver in libvirt needs to handle JSON command or
JSON message to interact with command monitor in ACRN DM.
In libvirt, JSON APIs implementation depends on yajl lib.
So yajl should be configured for libvirt.
v1-->v2:
Remove description about checkout hypervisor tag
since libvirt can work on the latest hypervisor.
Libvirt doesn't depend on acrnd and acrnctl now,
remove acrnd and acrnctl installation in this document.

For platforms which have apicv post-interrupt capability;
ACRN would use posted-interrupt to notify another vCPU which in non-root mode;
or sync interrupt for itself when it in root-mode.However,QEMU could not handle this properly.
