Sphinx doesn't have very good facilities for marking chunks of documentation as "put this in the manpage only". So instead we move the parts we want to put into both the HTML manuals and the manpage into their own .rst.inc files, which we can include from both the main manual rst files and a new toplevel rst file that will be the skeleton of the qemu.1 manpage.
In this commit, just split out the parts of the documentation that go in the manpage.
