The dontdiff file is a relic from the pre-Git era that has little use now.
It has entries (parse.c, for example) that will mask real changes to kernel
source files. There are all kinds of entries for files we do not create
anymore. Rather than try to fix it up, simply remove it.
Update the kernel documentation (and translations) to remove references to
this file. There is an ancient Japanese translation of SubmittingPatches
that I am unable to update; that really needs a thorough redo.

Align Italian documentation after the following patch to the main documents
commit 24a2bb9074 docs: Clarify the usage and sign-off requirements for Co-developed-by

This patch does not translate entirely the subfolder "process/"
but only part of it (to begin with).
In order to avoid broken links, I included empty documents
for those which are not yet translated.
In order to be able to refer to all documents in "process/",
I added a sphinx label to those which had not one.
Translated documents:
- howto
- 1.Intro
- clang-format
- coding-style
- kernel-driver-statement
- magic-number
- volatile-considered-harmful
- development-process
