This patch includes some (sort of) checker for suspicious constructs
that resembles markup that has leaked into the final output.
It's a new Builder for Sphinx, and works with the docutils nodes, not
the source files directly.
"doc-Makefile.diff" updates both make.bat and the Makefile, adding a
new target "suspicious".
The "ignored.csv" file contains the rules to discard false positives.
"builder.diff" updates builder.py in Sphinx, adding a new builder
implemented in suspicious.py; the source code has some comments
explaining how it's used.
Execute `make suspicious`, a "suspicious.csv" file is created in build/
suspicious containing one line per issue found.
Currently, the only relevant message I get is about the :makevar: role
usage in c-api/init.rst -- looks like docutils doesn't properly
processes it.
There is something I don't like in the code -- suspicious.py is
generic, lives inside the Sphinx directory, but knows not to process
the "documenting" directory inside Python [there are too much false
positives there -- most of the examples contain actual reST markup].
But I don't know enough of Sphinx to make it better :(
