[PATCH v4] docs: experimental: build PDF with rst2pdf
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Thu Mar 25 2021 - 08:38:51 EST
Add an experimental PDF builder using rst2pdf.
This extension is only enabled when "pdf" builder is selected.
So, it won't interfere with normal documentation builds. I opted
to not add a try..except block, as the message is already
good enough if one tries to do a "make rst2pdf" but the extension
is missed:
Extension error:
Could not import extension rst2pdf.pdfbuilder (exception: No module named 'rst2pdf')
This won't affect "make pdfdocs", as it uses the "latex" builder
instead.

v4:
- only enable the rst2pdf extension when required, e. g. when
$ make rst2pdf
is used.
