This updates all the non-runtime project release notes to use the
version number from CMake instead of the hard-coded version numbers
in conf.py.
It also hides warnings about pre-releases when the git suffix
is dropped from the LLVM version in CMake.

This is the patch for LLVM proper in my series for adding GNUInstallDirs support in all project.
Additionally:
Create a new `CACHE STRING` variable, `LLVM_EXAMPLES_INSTALL_DIR`, to control where the examples are installed on analogy with the other variables.
---
This patch supersedes D28234, which tried to do the same thing but hand-rolled without GNUInstallDirs.
This patch nearly reverts commit 3 0fc88bf1dc15a72e2d9809d28019d386b7a7cc0, which was a revert of a prior attempt."
(I had to add a space here or else Phabricator detects a reference cycle and won't let me do the form submit.)

See the discussion in D30906 for how it must be robust to downstream
projects that might not use `GNUInstallDirs`.
I think an easier approach is just to include `GNUInstallDirs` so that
we can always rely on it. Looking at its definition in
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/blob/master/Modules/GNUInstallDirs.cmake
it appears safe to include multiple times.
I am trying this out because we will face the same problem many times
over if we use `GNUInstallDirs` more widely, as proposed in D99484 and
its parent revisions, since we do not know what downstream projects do
and rather not break them.

This is a new draft of D28234. I previously did the unorthodox thing of
pushing to it when I wasn't the original author, but since this version
- Uses `GNUInstallDirs`, rather than mimics it, as the original author
was hesitant to do but others requested.
- Is much broader, effecting many more projects than LLVM itself.
I figured it was time to make a new revision.
I am using this patch (and many back-ports) as the basis of
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/111487 for my distro (NixOS). It
looked like people were generally on board in D28234, but I make note of
this here in case extra motivation is useful.

As pointed out in the original issue, a central tension is that LLVM
already has some partial support for these sorts of things. For example
`LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX`, or `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH`. Because it's not
quite clear yet what to do about those, we are holding off on changing
libdirs and `compiler-rt`. for this initial PR.
---
On the advice of @lebedev.ri, I am splitting this up a bit per
subproject, starting with LLVM. To allow it to be more easily reviewed. This and the subsequent patch must be landed together, as this will not build alone. But the rest can be landed on their own.

The build server should now have the missing dependencies.
Original summary:
Currently LLDB uses epydoc to generate the Python API reference for the website.
epydoc however is unmaintained since more than a decade and no longer works with
Python 3. Also whatever setup we had once for generating the documentation on
the website server no longer seems to work, so the current website documentation
has been stale since more than a year.
This patch replaces epydoc with sphinx and its automodapi plugin that can
generate Python API references. LLVM already uses sphinx for the rest of the
documentation, so this way we are more consistent with the rest of LLVM. The
only new dependency is the automodapi plugin for sphinx.
This patch effectively does the following things:
* Remove the epydoc code.
* Make a new dummy Python API page in our website that just calls the Sphinx
command for generated the API documentation.
* Add a mock _lldb module that is only used when generating the Python API.
This way we don't have to build all of LLDB to generate the API reference.
Some notes:
* The long list of skips is necessary due to boilerplate functions that SWIG
is generating. Sadly automodapi is not really scriptable from what I can see,
so we have to blacklist this stuff manually.
* The .gitignore change because automodapi wants a subfolder of our
documentation directory to place generated documentation files there. The path
is also what is used on the website, so we can't really workaround this
(without copying the whole `docs` dir somewhere else when we build).
* We have to use environment variables to pass our build path to our sphinx
configuration. Sphinx doesn't support passing variables onto that script.

Do not enforce recommonmark dependency if sphinx is called to build
manpages. In order to do this, try to import recommonmark first
and do not configure it if it's not available. Additionally, declare
a custom tags for the selected builder via CMake, and ignore
recommonmark import failure when 'man' target is used.
This will permit us to avoid the problematic recommonmark dependency
for the majority of Gentoo users that do not need to locally build
the complete documentation but want to have tool manpages.

Summary:
This is an attempt to simply the process of building the clang
documentation, which should help avoid some of the recent issues we've
had generating the documentation for the website.
The html documentation for clang is generated by sphinx from the
reStructuredText (rst) files we have in the clang/docs directory.
There are also some rst files that need to be generated by TableGen,
before they can be passed to sphinx. Prior to this patch we were not
generating those rst files as part with the build system and they had to be
generated manually.
This patch enables the automatic generation of these rst files, but
since they are generated at build time the cannot be placed in the
clang/docs directory and must go into the cmake build directory.
Unfortunately sphinx does not currently support multiple source
directories[1], so in order to be able to generate the full
documentation, we need to work around this by copying the
rst files from the clang/docs into the build directory before
generating the html documentation.

Modify add_sphinx_target() to include the project name alongside builder
in Sphinx doctree directory. This aims to avoid crashes due to race
conditions between multiple Sphinx instances running in parallel that
attempt to create or read that directory simultaneously.
This problem has originally been addressed in r283188. However, that
commit presumed that there will be only one target per builder being
run. However, r314863 introduced a second manpage target, reintroducing
the race condition.

The option LLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX option enables the "docs-llvm-html",
"docs-llvm-man" targets but does not build them by default. The
following CMake options have been added that control what targets are
made available
SPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML
SPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN
If LLVM_BUILD_DOCS is enabled then the enabled docs-llvm-* targets will
be built by default and if ``make install`` is run then docs-llvm-html
and docs-llvm-man will be installed (tested on Linux only).
The add_sphinx_target function is in its own file so it can be included
by other projects that use Sphinx for their documentation.
