Subject: [PATCH] build: Build and install a Texinfo version of the manual.

Take advantage of the Sphinx texinfo backend to generate a QEMU info
manual.  The Texinfo format allows for more structure and info readers
provide more advanced navigation capabilities compared to manpages
readers.

* docs/meson.build (texi, info): New targets.
