[Intel-gfx] [PATCH 4/5] scripts/kernel-doc: Use asciidoc instead of markdown

By popular demand.

This needs some adjustment/fixups after feeding snippets to asciidoc
since compared to markdown asciidown escapes xml markup and doesn't
just let it through.

The other noticeable change is that build times increase a lot - we
need to launch the markup process per-snippet, there's a few thousand
of them and asciidoc (python) has a substantial higher overhead per
invocation than pandoc (haskell).
