2014-10-10ref-manual, template: Permalinks for QA errors and warningsScott Rifenbark
Updated the ref-qa-checks.xml chapter so that each QA warning or error message would generate a permalink that is suitable for searching from the poky codebase. To implement this, I had to embed an id marker in the <para> tag that precedes each <code></code> tag pair. The 'xxx' string of the id is the leaf portion of the permalink. This creates the following tag construct: <para id='xxx'> <code> some-warning-or-error-message </code> </para> The permalink is generated with the help of the new qa-code-permalinks.xsl file, which triggers on the <para><code></code></para> construct. This new file resides in documentation/template. Right now, this construct is unique to the ref-manual's chapter on the QA error and warnings chapter only. However, if for some reason that construct is used in any other part of the ref-manual, a generically numbered permalink would also be generated. The ref-manual-customization.xsl file was also altered to include the new documentation/template/qa-code-permalinks.xsl file.
