Now that we have tools/lib/python for our Python modules, turn them into
proper packages with a single namespace so that everything can just use
tools/lib/python in sys.path. No functional change.

"scripts/lib" was always a bit of an awkward place for Python modules. We
already have tools/lib; create a tools/lib/python, move the libraries
there, and update the users accordingly.
While at it, move the contents of tools/docs/lib. Rather than make another
directory, just put these documentation-oriented modules under "kdoc".

Add an extra parameter to parse_file to make it handle exceptions
internally, cleaning up the API.

When running it from command line, we want to write an output
file, but when used as a class, one may just want the output
content returned as a string.
Split write_output() on two methods to allow both usecases.
Also add an extra method to produce a TOC.

As suggested by Jon, we should start having a tools/docs
directory, instead of placing everything under scripts.
In the specific case of parse-headers.py, the previous
location is where we're placing Sphinx extensions, which is
not the right place for execs.
Move it to tools/docs/parse-headers.py.
