Re: [libvirt] [Docs] More work on the API and architecture

Another patch, incomplete adding a new page api.html[.in]
with the goals of describing the main API concepts, architectures,
naming conventions, etc ... It includes Dan's graphics and a change of
how the stylesheet process the .html.in content allowing to turn
<code class='docref'>foo</code> into a link to reference for foo in
the
API page. Ultimately I should be able to load the API description from
the stylesheet and do that link generation automagically without any
markup (like all the links in the API reference).
Still need to write the drivers and remote sections, and augment some
of the APIs entry points, but it's a first step and better in than out.
Looks good, but its missing Makefile.am rule to generate the images
from the .fig files. It'd be nicer to use PNG instead of GIF and
get nicely anti-aliased, transparent background images. ImageMagick
can do this fairly easily using a rule like
%.png: %.fig
convert -rotate 90 $< $@
The 'rotate 90' bit is because for some wierd reason it defaults to
rotating it 90 degrees in a direction you don't want unless you look
at images side-ways on :-)
