C domain supports a ".. c:namespace::" tag that allows setting a
symbol namespace. This is used within the kernel to avoid warnings
about duplicated symbols. This is specially important for syscalls,
as each subsystem may have their own documentation for them.
This is specially true for ioctl.
When such tag is used, all C domain symbols have c++ style,
e.g. they'll become "{namespace}.{reference}".
Allow specifying C namespace at the exception files, avoiding
the need of override rules for every symbol.

When used in practice, one may want to have multiple header
files on a single rst file, like:
***********************
Digital TV uAPI symbols
***********************
.. contents:: Table of Contents
:depth: 2
:local:
Frontend
========
.. kernel-include:: include/uapi/linux/dvb/frontend.h
:generate-cross-refs:
:toc:
Demux
=====
.. kernel-include:: include/uapi/linux/dvb/dmx.h
:generate-cross-refs:
:toc:
...
So, don't add ..contents:: here.

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.
