[v2,08/62] docs/qapi-domain: add QAPI xref roles

Commit Message

John Snow March 9, 2025, 8:34 a.m. UTC

Add domain-specific cross-reference syntax. As of this commit, that
means new :qapi:any:`block-core` referencing syntax.

The :any: role will find anything registered to the QAPI domain,
including modules, commands, events, etc.

Creating the cross-references is powered by the QAPIXRefRole class;
resolving them is handled by QAPIDomain.resolve_xref().

QAPIXrefRole is based heavily on Sphinx's own PyXrefRole, with
modifications necessary for QAPI features.
