Francesco Montorsi b6ca9b2983 Feature: modernize API documentation
* 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

== NAME
zmq_ctx_term - terminate a 0MQ context
== SYNOPSIS
*int zmq_ctx_term (void '*context');*
== DESCRIPTION
The _zmq_ctx_term()_ function shall destroy the 0MQ context 'context'.
Context termination is performed in the following steps:
1. Any blocking operations currently in progress on sockets open within
'context' shall return immediately with an error code of ETERM. With the
exception of _zmq_close()_, any further operations on sockets open within
'context' shall fail with an error code of ETERM.
2. After interrupting all blocking calls, _zmq_ctx_term()_ shall _block_ until
the following conditions are satisfied:
* All sockets open within 'context' have been closed with _zmq_close()_.
* For each socket within 'context', all messages sent by the application
with _zmq_send()_ have either been physically transferred to a network
peer, or the socket's linger period set with the _ZMQ_LINGER_ socket
option has expired.
For further details regarding socket linger behaviour refer to the _ZMQ_LINGER_
option in xref:zmq_setsockopt.adoc[zmq_setsockopt]
This function replaces the deprecated functions xref:zmq_term.adoc[zmq_term] and
xref:zmq_ctx_destroy.adoc[zmq_ctx_destroy]
== RETURN VALUE
The _zmq_ctx_term()_ function shall return zero if successful. Otherwise
it shall return `-1` and set 'errno' to one of the values defined below.
== ERRORS
*EFAULT*::
The provided 'context' was invalid.
*EINTR*::
Termination was interrupted by a signal. It can be restarted if needed.
