Add a new script and a new documentation 'make' target,
htmldocs-redirects.
This will generate HTML stub files in the HTML documentation output
directory that redirect the browser to the new path.

Add a new script that wraps git to trawl the repository history for
renames of .rst files in the Documentation/ directory.
Example usage:
tools/docs/gen-renames.py --rev v6.17-rc3 > Documentation/.renames.txt
The output format is simply:
<old path> SPACE <new path> NEWLINE
where neither <old path> nor <new path> contain the Documentation/
prefix or the .rst suffix. The file is sorted alphabetically.
We can suggest rerunning the script for future renames (and squash the
resulting change) or rerun it periodically to keep the file up to date.

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.
