Merge tag 'docs-6.16' of git://git.lwn.net/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
 "A moderately busy cycle for documentation this time around:

   - The most significant change is the replacement of the old
     kernel-doc script (a monstrous collection of Perl regexes that
     predates the Git era) with a Python reimplementation. That, too, is
     a horrifying collection of regexes, but in a much cleaner and more
     maintainable structure that integrates far better with the Sphinx
     build system.

     This change has been in linux-next for the full 6.15 cycle; the
     small number of problems that turned up have been addressed,
     seemingly to everybody's satisfaction. The Perl kernel-doc script
     remains in tree (as scripts/kernel-doc.pl) and can be used with a
     command-line option if need be. Unless some reason to keep it
     around materializes, it will probably go away in 6.17.

     Credit goes to Mauro Carvalho Chehab for doing all this work.

   - Some RTLA documentation updates

   - A handful of Chinese translations

   - The usual collection of typo fixes, general updates, etc"
