Peter Hutterer a535897ae7 Use Sphinx for the DBus interface documentation
Better than the markdown we were using before, even though we're currently
(ab)using the js/c++ domains for the structure. There is no DBus domain in
sphinx yet.

The main motivation was to get the enums into the documentation since they are
exported ABI.

Generating the documentation is quirky - we use doxygen to extract the
comments from the C header file and then use XSLT to convert to .rst which
sphinx can use. Still better than having to maintain even more copies of the
enums.

Since this is only of interest for maintainers that need to upload the
documentation, it is turned off by default.
