This adds the release notes for all of our old releases that have notes
to the documentation directory. The release notes for the next release,
4.9 is added here as well.
I would request that people document their changes for the next release
themselves if they wish them to be in the release notes.

- Update the config files to 1.8.13
- Unify the coreboot and coreboot_simple configs. The only difference
now is that coreboot uses the graphviz library to generate call graphs
and other things, while coreboot_simple does not. This means that the
doxygen_simple target builds in just over a minute, while the doxygen
build target takes roughly an hour.
- Both targets now only document coreboot proper. While at times it
might be useful to see links to code from src/vendorcode, 3rdparty, or
util, these directories also really clutter up the doxygen output. To
make it easier to see the coreboot code, all of these directories are
excluded.

This commit adds the necessary infrastructure to convert the Markdown
files in the Documentation directory to HTML using Sphinx[1] and
recommonmark[2]. I selected "sphinx_rtd_theme" as the theme, because it
offers a useful navigation sidebar, and because it's already used for
the Linux kernel[3].
Makefile.sphinx was auto-generated by sphinx-quickstart. conf.py was
auto-generated and manually adjusted.

Simplifies our C interface function gma_gfxinit(), due to the following
changes:
* *libgfxinit* knows about the underlying PCI device now and can
probe MMIO addresses by itself.
* The framebuffer mapping is now completely handled inside the
library where we validate that we neither overflow
- the stolen memory,
- the GTT address space, the GTT itself nor
- the aperture window (i.e. resource2 of the PCI device)
that we use to access the framebuffer.
Other changes:
* Fixes and a quirk for DP training.
* Fix for DP-VGA adapters that report an analog display in EDID.
* Fixes for Skylake support with coreboot.
* DDI Buffer drive-strength configuration for Haswell, Broadwell and
Skylake.
* `gfx_test` can now be run from X windows (with glitches).
* Compatibility with GCC 7 and SPARK GPL 2017.
