[PATCH 21/57] docs/qapi-domain: add :deprecated: directive option

[John Snow]

Although "deprecated" is a feature (and *will* appear in the features
list), add a special :deprecated: option to generate an eye-catch that
makes this information very hard to miss.

(The intent is to modify qapidoc.py to add this option whenever it
detects that the features list attached to a definition contains the
"deprecated" entry.)

-

RFC: Technically, this object-level option is un-needed and could be
replaced with a standard content-level directive that e.g. qapidoc.py
could insert at the beginning of the content block. I've done it here as
an option to demonstrate how it would be possible to do.

It's a matter of taste for "where" we feel like implementing it.

One benefit of doing it this way is that we can create a single
containing box to set CSS style options controlling the flow of multiple
infoboxes. The other way to achieve that would be to create a directive
that allows us to set multiple options instead, e.g.:

.. qapi:infoboxes:: deprecated unstable

or possibly:

.. qapi:infoboxes::
   :deprecated:
   :unstable:

For now, I've left these as top-level QAPI object options. "Hey, it works."

P.S., I outsourced the CSS ;)
