  • In docutils 0.13, the return type of get_column_widths method of the
    Table directive has changed [1], which breaks our flat-table directive
    and leads to a TypeError when trying to build the docs [2].

    This patch adds support for the new return type, while keeping support
    for older docutils versions too.

  • The setup() function of a Sphinx-extension can return a dictionary. This
    is treated by Sphinx as metadata of the extension [1].

    With metadata "parallel_read_safe = True" a extension is marked as
    save for "parallel reading of source". This is needed if you want
    build in parallel with N processes. E.g.:

    make SPHINXOPTS=-j4 htmldocs

    will no longer log warnings like:

    WARNING: the foobar extension does not declare if it is safe for
    parallel reading, assuming it isn't - please ask the extension author
    to check and make it explicit.

    Add metadata to extensions:

    * kernel-doc
    * flat-table
    * kernel-include

  • Implements the reST flat-table directive.

    The ``flat-table`` is a double-stage list similar to the ``list-table`` with
    some additional features:

    * column-span: with the role ``cspan`` a cell can be extended through
    additional columns

    * row-span: with the role ``rspan`` a cell can be extended through
    additional rows

    * auto span rightmost cell of a table row over the missing cells on the right
    side of that table-row. With Option ``:fill-cells:`` this behavior can
    changed from *auto span* to *auto fill*, which automaticly inserts (empty)

    list tables

    The *list tables* formats are double stage lists. Compared to the
    ASCII-art they migth be less comfortable for readers of the
    text-files. Their advantage is, that they are easy to create/modify
    and that the diff of a modification is much more meaningfull, because
    it is limited to the modified content.

    The initial implementation was taken from the sphkerneldoc project [1]
