This patch modifies the instructions that lead users to modify predefined
scenario XMLs under ``misc/config_tools/data`` which is not a preferred
way. It is recommended to make and edit a local copy, instead.
Also fixes a few references to ``misc/vm_configs`` which has been moved.
v2:
* fix typos in paths
* explain on the candidate values of ``port_base`` and ``irq`` fields

Users no longer need to explicitly generate configuration source code as
they are now generated at build time. This patch updates the relevant
instructions in the documentation.

* Cleanup the unnecessary target `all` in the `make` commands
* Remove menuconfig related stuff.
* Refine the introductory paragraph as only steps on Ubuntu is introduced
* Also introduce the targets introduced by PR #5791
v2:
* Add python3 lxml as a dependency
* Explain how to use out-of-tree XML files

After grand update of all titles to use title-case, we found some more
that needed a manual tweak.

While we hoped to make the headings consistent over time while doing
other edits, we should instead just make the squirrels happy and do them
all at once or they'll likely never be made consistent.
A python script was used to find the headings, and then a call to
https://pypi.org/project/titlecase to transform the title. A visual
inspection was used to tweak a few unexpected resulting titles.

Start cleaning up formatting and content layout issues in the
xsd-derived configuration option documentation. Includes adding
documentation for unnamed embedded simple types within an element (and
updates to the XSLT transformation to display these), cleanup of element
and type documentation, typos and description clarity.
Improved xsdl translation to automatically include default values and if
an option is optional (instead of manually documenting this in the
description text).

Ivshmem hv-land solution emulates the ivshmem device in hypervisor
and the shared memory is reserved in the hypervisor's memory space.
And it can provide inter-vm communication for both pre-launched and
post-launched VMs.
This patch introduces the ivshmem hv-land solution including what
ivshmem hv-land is and how to use it.
