The new qapidoc.py can generate "Returns" statements with type
information just fine, so we can remove it from the source where it
doesn't add anything particularly novel or helpful and just repeats the
type info.
This patch is fairly "gentle" and doesn't aggressively touch other
"Returns" lines that could be rephrased to omit repeating type
information; it only removes lines that appear appropriate to wholly
remove.
To help facilitate auto-generated placement, a few doc blocks have a
"TODO:" line inserted to help the placement algorithm differentiate the
introductory paragraph(s) from the rest of the documentation.
The auto-generated returns are in the exact same spot, except for
query-migrationthreads, query-machines, and
x-query-virtio-queue-element. These auto-generation moves to a better
spot.

Remove the QAPI doc section heading syntax, use plain rST section
headings instead.
Tests and documentation are updated to match.
Interestingly, Plain rST headings work fine before this patch, except
for over- and underlining with '=', which the doc parser rejected as
invalid QAPI doc section heading in free-form comments.

Use the no-option form of ".. qmp-example::" to convert any Examples
that do not have any form of caption or explanation whatsoever. Note
that in a few cases, example sections are split into two or more
separate example blocks. This is only done stylistically to create a
delineation between two or more logically independent examples.
See commit-3: "docs/qapidoc: create qmp-example directive", for a
detailed explanation of this custom directive syntax.
See commit+3: "qapi: remove "Example" doc section" for a detailed
explanation of why.
Note: an empty "TODO" line was added to announce-self to keep the
example from floating up into the body; this will be addressed more
rigorously in the new qapidoc generator.

See recent commit "qapi: Relax doc string @name: description
indentation rules" for rationale.
Reflow paragraphs to 70 columns width, and consistently use two spaces
to separate sentences.
To check the generated documentation does not change, I compared the
generated HTML before and after this commit with "wdiff -3". Finds no
differences. Comparing with diff is not useful, as the reflown
paragraphs are visible there.

Peter Maydell's commit 100cc4fe0f explains:
rST insists on a blank line before and after a bulleted list [...]
Add some extra blank lines in the doc comments so they're
acceptable rST input.
It missed one in qapi/trace.json.
Paolo Bonzini later added another instance in qapi/stats.json,
providing further, if unintended, evidence for his quip that rST is
the Perl of ASCII-based markups.
Both are parsed as ordinary paragraph, resulting in garbled output.
John Snow missed the need for a blank line when converting
docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.txt to rST.
Add the blank lines we need to get the bullet lists recognized as
such.
Kevin Wolf and Lukas Straub added two more, but indented. Sphinx
recognizes them as (indented) bullet lists. The indentation looks
slightly off.
Insert a blank line and delete the extra indentation.

[Fix of docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst squashed, commit message adjusted]
The yank feature allows to recover from hanging qemu by "yanking"
at various parts. Other qemu systems can register themselves and
multiple yank functions. Then all yank functions for selected
instances can be called by the 'yank' out-of-band qmp command.
Available instances can be queried by a 'query-yank' oob command.
