56a946568a More changes to how Bro generates docs for scripts in subdirs of BROPATH
The output reST filename now reflects the subdir information (by flattening
'/' path separators into the '^' character).  This is to prevent file name
conflicts when generated reST docs, but during the CMake 'doc' target to
build HTML docs, everything gets unflattened.

2d17ca0942 Generated script docs now have a new summary section.
It's a table listing all the identifiers in the script's public interface
and an optional, brief (one-sentence) description of each.

090ce2d03c Fix generated script docs displaying functions twice.
A function prototype can be declared separately from where it's defined;
the doc framework should now recognize them as the same and combine
reST documentation associated with either case if both are present.

Also, it's starting to attempt to describe more complex types
of initial values.

2490878656 Another revision for autodoc tracking of public vs private interfaces
A script's public API wasn't simply definable as identifiers
for which ID::IsGlobal() is true, e.g. an unexported identifier with
SCOPE_MODULE will still pass that test and (incorrectly) be considered
public API.

Also, generated reST now omits empty interface sections.

2e88c5100c Revise autodoc tracking of public vs private script interfaces
A bro script's public interface is taken to mean any identifier declared
in the global scope that optionally is exported from some namespace/module.
Or more simply: ID::IsGlobal()

c2f0332b5f Removing lexical scanner recognition of "## Author:" comments.
This functionality is better done manually by the script writer
embedding reST into the script summary section (##! comments).
This allows flexibility in choosing between different methods
to convey the same information (e.g. ":Author: <author>" or
the ".. codeauthor:: <author>" directive that Sphinx
configurations can recognize).

8b79971e21 Fix auto-generated reST :doc: references to strip .bro file suffixes.
It's allowed for a script to "@load example.bro", but Sphinx doesn't want
that file extension for the purposes of generating cross-referencing links
to other documentation.

384fa03c26 Revising notice, port analysis, packet filter, auto-generated documentation.
They're now all optional sections -- if a given bro script doesn't use the
functionality, then the documentation doesn't mention anything about it.

f67c0892e5 Revise enum documentation autogeneration.
This adds a new subclass of EnumType, CommentedEnumType, and removes
any previous changes to EnumType that were done to support the
autodoc framework.

Dummy CommentedEnumType and ID's are constructed in parallel with the
real EnumType ID's during parsing and passed on to the autodoc framework.

This allows the generated documentation to track enum redefs, with
a special case being the "Notice" enum type.

30209b56bb Bro script documentation framework checkpoint
* New bro runtime options: -Z or --doc-scripts enables documentation mode
* New BroDoc, BroBifDoc, and BroDocObj interfaces to support script
  documentation
* Modifications to the bro scanner (scan.l) to get it to keep track of
  which script is being scanned/parsed and which document is being generated
* Modifications to scan.l and the bro parser (parse.y) to produce/consume
  script comments denoted with "##"
* Documentation is currently generated for the following
** Script author
** Script summary
** @load's
** capture_filters
** modules (namespaces)

Most of the remaining framework/infrastructure work should be in extracting
the interesting BroObj objects as the parser sees them and better formatting
the reST documents.
