Hi,
I have a disagreement with Diego about generating doxygen docs.

Currently we generate doxygen for all files in Libav, which IMO leads to
horribly cluttered output.
See e.g.
https://libav.org/doxygen/master/files.html
https://libav.org/doxygen/master/annotated.html
https://libav.org/doxygen/master/classes.html
https://libav.org/doxygen/master/globals_func.html
A mountain of stuff that's absolutely useless to people who want public
API documentation. It just makes searching for what they need much
harder.

For this reason I think we should only generate doxy for installed
headers, so the output contains only public API documentation.
At least that should be the default, we can have a second alternative
doxy config file that would generate docs for everything.

OTOH Diego claims we should keep generating doxy for all files. I'm sure
he'll present his reasons and arguments himself.

If there indeed are people who read generated doxy for non-public API,
I'd like them to speak up and prove their existence.
Everyone else with an opinion is of course welcome to comment as well.
