Add several documents to the development-process ReST book.

As we don't want renames, use symlinks instead, keeping those
documents on their original place.

  to be presented as a monospaced font when parsed by Sphinx;

- the markup below the title should have the same length as the
  title;

- Fix the list markups, from "1:" to "1)";

- Split item 2 into a separate list for the build options, in order
  to be presented as a list on Sphinx;

Task 11 (kernel-doc) still mentions usage of make manpages, but
this won't work if the API is documented via Sphinx. So, update
it to use either htmldocs or pdfdocs, with are the documentation
targets that work for all.

While here, add ReST reference to the kernel documentation book.

Ever since commit 45f035ab9b8f ("CONFIG_HOTPLUG should be always on"),
it has been basically impossible to build a kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG
turned off.  Remove all the remaining references to it.

There have been persistent lockdep RCU splats, indicating that submitters
are not testing with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.  Add this config option to the list
in Documentation/SubmitChecklist.  Also add CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD
for good measure.

The sleeping inside spinlock detection is actually used
for more general sleeping inside atomic sections
debugging: preemption disabled, rcu read side critical
sections, interrupts, interrupt disabled, etc...

Change the name of the config and its help section to
reflect its more general role.

Add header file requirements.  Compliments of Stephen Rothwell.

Stephen calls this Rule #1, so I put it there, but I didn't want to demote
any of the others in the list, so I made one of them number 2b.
