ff8b091864 docs: maintainers_include: keep the last entry at the end
The last maintainer's entry ("THE REST") is meant to be at the
end. Ensure that.

While here, use a case-insensitive sort to avoid placing "iSCSI"
near the end.

84a9658e84 docs: maintainers_include: better handle directories
The TOC tree needs to use paths relative to the document containing
the maintainers-profile-toc directive. Fix it.

While here, address a warning from sashiko-bot, which points
that using partition can be problematic if the root Linux path
ends being something like:

    foo/Documentation/linux/

causing the documentation dir to be at:

    foo/Documentation/linux/Documentation

Very unlikely, but fixing it is trivial: just use regex to
pick the last one.

Notice that I dropped the comment about using os.fspath() as
the logic already uses os.path.abspath() which should work
equally well.

247cb381a5 docs: maintainers_include: don't ignore invalid profile entries
Currently, there is a "P" entry for Rust pin-init that is
neither a valid ReST file inside Documentation nor an URL.

A proper fix is to either convert/move the file or point to
a URL. Yet, the parser should be able to pick what's there and
show on its output.

Add a logic to produce a warning when this happens.

4cd160e4ea docs: maintainers_include: split state machine on multiple funcs
Instead of one big __init__ code, split the MaintainersParser
code in a way that the state machine remains on __init__, but
the actual parser for descriptions and subsystems are moved
to separate functions.

To make parser easier, instead storing parsed results on a list,
place them directly on a string.

That granted 15% of performance increase(*) with Python 3.14 and
made the logic simpler.

(*) measured by creating a new directory under Documentation/,
    and placing justmaintainers.rst and an index file there,
    building it via sphinx-build-wrapper.

6aaf2e91a1 docs: maintainers_include: fix support for O=dir
os.path.relpath() will do the wrong thing with O=dir, as the build
system uses "cd <dir>" internally.

Solve it by using app.srcdir, which, on normal cases, point to

Documentation/process.

While here, remove a dead code while writing maintainer profiles,
as now all entries should have both profile and entry.

237abdfaa6 docs: maintainers_include: improve its output
There are three "types" of profiles:
1. Profiles already included inside subsystem-specific documentation.
   This is the most common case;
2. Profiles that are hosted externally;
3. Profiles that are at the same location as maintainer-handbooks.rst.

For (3), we need to create a TOC, as they don't exist elsewhere.

Change the logic to create TOC just for (3), prepending the
content of maintainer-handbooks with a sorted entry of all types,
before the TOC.

With such change, we can have an unique sorted list of profiles,
having the subsystem names used there listed.

66a40162db docs: maintainers_include: preserve names for files under process/
When a maintainer's profile is stored outside process, they're
already included on some other book and the name of the filesystem
may not be there. That's why the logic picks the name from the
subsystem's name.

However, files directly placed together with maintainers-handbooks.rst
(e.g. under Documentation/process/) is a different history: those
aren't placed anywhere, so we can keep using their own names,
letting Sphinx do his thing.

aa20485528 doc-rst: Programmatically render MAINTAINERS into ReST
In order to have the MAINTAINERS file visible in the rendered ReST
output, this makes some small changes to the existing MAINTAINERS file
to allow for better machine processing, and adds a new Sphinx directive
"maintainers-include" to perform the rendering.

Features include:
- Per-subsystem reference links: subsystem maintainer entries can be
  trivially linked to both internally and external. For example:
  https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/maintainers.html#secure-computing

- Internally referenced .rst files are linked so they can be followed
  when browsing the resulting rendering. This allows, for example, the
  future addition of maintainer profiles to be automatically linked.

- Field name expansion: instead of the short fields (e.g. "M", "F",
  "K"), use the indicated inline "full names" for the fields (which are
  marked with "*"s in MAINTAINERS) so that a rendered subsystem entry
  is more human readable. Email lists are additionally comma-separated.
  For example:
