When we were designing the libweston output API, I wrote a design document
as a Phabricator wiki page. Phabricator is no longer accessible so that
information needs to be migrated to a new place. Here I am converting most of
it into libweston Sphinx documentation, particularly pulling in the sequence
diagrams I drew. This should help people understand how libweston output
configuration works.
The diagrams are committed as both MSC source files and rendered PNG files. I
did not bother tinkering with the build to run mscgen automatically and then
with the CI images to install the tool.
The Sphinx configuration need numref explicitly enabled so that figures are
automatically numbered and can be referenced by their number rather than their
whole caption text(!).
The document structure is changed a little better flowing with Output
Management being the overview page and the Heads and Outputs being the API
pages.
First I wrote the struct weston_output and weston_head descriptions in Doxygen
comments in libweston.h, but then in the API page that text would have been
buried somewhere towards the end of the page. So I put that text in ReST
instead where it comes as first on the pages as it should. The doc for the
structs only contain a link to the top of the page. Yes, the comment style in
libweston.h is a little broken. If I left the asterisk there it would show up
as a bullet point in Sphinx. OTOH putting everything from \rst in a single line
did not produce anything.
Because Sphinx cannot look in two places, the images need to be copied into the
build dir too.

Destroying the compositor after destroying the log scope will not print
out the messages in the tear down/clean-up phase of the compositor, so
add a new tear_down function which allows keeping a valid reference to
the compositor. This way we can destroy the compositor before destroying
the scope and keep the debug messages.
While at it remove the log context destroy part from the clean-up
of the compositor and make it stand on its own.

Unfortunate left over which was not removed once we had the script in
place to regenerate the documentation. A side-effect was the fact that
we still ran the script even if 'docs' target was called, effectively
nullifying the fact that 'docs' target was ran at all. For instance,
'install' would've been executing the script even if 'docs' target
was called before.
This removes the doxygen_target entirely and the depends of sphinx
target on it, makes building and installing docs a bit faster.

With the introduction of the 'docs' target we make sure that we always
build the documentation, but currently breathe is unaware of the fact
that the doxygen XML database was changed in between runs. It is obvious
when changing only source code not rST bits.
This patch makes sphinx ignore the saved environment and always
rebuild the docs.

These definitions were just set to the default (off), but their presence
causes Fedora's Doxygen to emit a warning as it is not compiled with
Clang support.
Remove them as they are no-ops anyway.

With these aliases we can use rST directives inside comment blocks. This
adds also a doxygen command '\rststar' where ignores the asterisk --
typical to multi-line comment blocks.

This is adds basic configuration files for doxygen and for breathe,
which is a doxygen-to-sphinx bridge that can document C symbols.
Breathe is configured with default project 'weston' and implicitly adds
:members: and :undoc-members: to breathe configuration options.
This allows a shorter way to call breathe directives without the need
specify the project and also to display implicitly all the members,
documented or not.
A 'docs' run_target to force the docs to be re-built has been added.
Initially (the first time the build system is ran) the documentation
will automatically be built, but later re-builds will require the use of
the 'docs' target. This avoid further delays in building weston but in
the same time allows the possiblity to update/improve the documentation
bits to those who want that.

Remoting plugin support streaming image of virtual output on drm-backend
to remote output. By appending remote-output section in weston.ini,
weston loads remoting plugin module and creates virtual outputs via
remoting plugin. The mode, host, and port properties are configurable in
remote-output section.
This plugin send motion jpeg images to client via RTP using gstreamer.
Client can receive by using following pipeline of gst-launch.
gst-launch-1.0 rtpbin name=rtpbin \
udpsrc caps="application/x-rtp,media=(string)video,clock-rate=(int)90000,
encoding-name=JPEG,payload=26" port=[PORTNUMBER] !
rtpbin.recv_rtp_sink_0 \
rtpbin. ! rtpjpegdepay ! jpegdec ! autovideosink \
udpsrc port=[PORTNUMBER+1] ! rtpbin.recv_rtcp_sink_0 \
rtpbin.send_rtcp_src_0 !
udpsink port=[PORTNUMBER+2] sync=false async=false
where, PORTNUMBER is specified in weston.ini.

Move the README file to Markdown, and update it to attempt to explain
the current status and use of Weston.
The first sections are user-facing, so they can quickly understand what
Weston is, what it does, what it doesn't do, and how to go about using
it. The following sections on libweston and for distribution packagers
are left intact, but should probably be moved to separate documents.
This includes a screenshot of Weston running weston-terminal, Chrome and
simple-egl, which was taken by myself and subject to the same licensing
terms as the rest of the tree.

This is not to be installed, except maybe as a doc. It is just an
example of what one might do. It also has not been tested, it's just
for giving an idea of what it should do.
It also contains untested speculation.
