* migrate from the old, unmaintained "asciidoc-py" tool to the new "asciidoctor" generator
* migrate from asciidoc-py syntax to the modern Asciidoc syntax (especially page titles and section titles)
* remove the need of "xmlto" utility to create the manpage output; use asciidoctor for that
* add HTML output support to the doc/Makefile by using asciidoctor
* change API documentation files extension from .txt to .adoc to make it more explicit that they are Asciidoc-encoded (as a bonus several IDE plugins will autodetect the .adoc format as Asciidoc)
* remove asciidoc.conf: asciidoctor does not support that; this also required replacing the macro linkzmq into all documentation pages
* add a new Github action CI do deploy to Github Pages the static HTMLs produced by Asciidoctors
* removed references to the "xmlto" and "a2x" tools from the build and packaging systems: Asciidoctor can convert the documentation directly to e.g. pdf (via extended converters) and anyway there was no code/target for using "xmlto" and "a2x" tools anyway
Solution: use libbsd by default when available, and the internal implementation
only as a fallback, to take advantage of Linux distros maintenance of the
string libraries.
Solution: revert DRAFT -> STABLE API transition so that we can do a
bugfix-only 4.2.5 release.
Will be re-reverted once tagged.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_BINDTODEVICE has met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 3cb79f5042.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_MSG_GSSAPI_* have met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 374da4207b.
Revert "Problem: ZMQ_MSG_T_SIZE has met STABLE conditions"
This reverts commit 6411c4a247.
Revert "Problem: docs say STABLE API still in DRAFT"
This reverts commit 9f2f30b7ff.
Solution: move it from DRAFT to STABLE since it's been in a public
release, committed for 6+ months and has not changed.
Given a new STABLE symbol has been added, bump minor version number.
Solution: don't. libtool's archive files are already being deprecated
in Debian-based distros. They are no longer necessary, and cause the
reverse dependencies to over-link.
EG: when built with sodium/pgm/krb5, all applications/libraries
linking against libzmq would be forced to link against sodium/pgm/krb5
despite not using any of those libraries symbols.
Solution: if rpmbuild is called with --with drafts, which can be
triggered on OBS by adding:
Macros:
%_with_drafts 1
to the bottom of the prjconf, then enable draft APIs.
