Markus Heiser 606b9ac81a doc-rst: generic way to build only sphinx sub-folders
Add a generic way to build only a reST sub-folder with or
without a individual *build-theme*.

* control *sub-folders* by environment SPHINXDIRS
* control *build-theme* by environment SPHINX_CONF

Folders with a conf.py file, matching $(srctree)/Documentation/*/conf.py
can be build and distributed *stand-alone*. E.g. to compile only the
html of 'media' and 'gpu' folder use::

  make SPHINXDIRS="media gpu" htmldocs

To use an additional sphinx-build configuration (*build-theme*) set the
name of the configuration file to SPHINX_CONF. E.g. to compile only the
html of 'media' with the *nit-picking* build use::

  make SPHINXDIRS=media SPHINX_CONF=conf_nitpick.py htmldocs

With this, the Documentation/conf.py is read first and updated with the
configuration values from the Documentation/media/conf_nitpick.py.
