18e87ce7bd doc: we really need a Fontmap file
It turns out that we need a Fontmap file after all, *and* -I. to make
gs find it. Inconsistent results came from stray Fontmap files from
previous debug attempts.

Now generate both fontpath and Fontmap, and hopefully at least one of
them should work. We might, in fact, need both, one for gs to know
where the files are and one for gs to know it is allowed to read them.

The core problem seems to be that gs will find OTF fonts by its normal
discovery mechanisms, but for some reason don't seem to use them
unless it can find them in a Fontmap, Font directory, of CIDFont
directory.

723ab481a6 warnings: define warning classes at point of use
It is extremely desirable to allow the user fine-grained control of
warnings, but this has been complicated by the fact that a warning
class has had to be defined in no less than three places (error.h,
error.c, nasmdoc.src) before it can be used in source code. Instead,
use a script to define these via magic comments at the point of use.

This hopefully will encourage creating new classes as needed.

a4f6ca5a33 Make buildsystem respect GNU conventions
* CPPFLAGS is a user variable and should be respected
  when compiling .c files. Think of -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2.

* Pass ALL_CFLAGS when linking too. This is recommended
  for certain edge cases (-flto)

* Use DESTDIR instead of INSTALLROOT for staging dir
  Every other build system (Automake, CMake, Meson) uses
  DESTDIR. This integrates better into distro and other
  build systems that have standard hooks for DESTDIR.

* $(MAKE) -C <dir> is better than cd'ing into a <dir>

* Use Autoconf's ${docdir} and ${htmldir} for installing
  the documentation. This makes handling documentation
  easier and respects user choice.

d31a74e301 doc: add a local.css specifically to be overridden locally
Add a file local.css which is referenced *after* nasmdoc.css, thus
overriding the latter.  This file intentionally has no actual content,
which means it can be overridden locally for any desired content,
e.g. indexing into web fonts or overriding any of the style.

e8a9041c58 doc/Makefile.in: drop nasmdoc.ps as a usable documentation file
There is no sane reason to use nasmdoc.ps over nasmdoc.pdf since, oh,
about 20 years.  nasmdoc.ps doesn't embed the fonts (and if it did, it
would be very large, whereas nasmdoc.pdf only contains the characters
we explicitly need), and support for PDF is generally much better than
support for PostScript.

It also makes the distribution file smaller to not have two redundant
files.

70b070f952 doc: improve the look of the documentation with better fonts
Use the Adobe Source Sans/Code Pro fonts by default.  They are Open
Source fonts by Adobe.  However, since these fonts are quite large,
let them be an external dependency and do our best to try to find them
with whatever mechanism is available on the system for finding
standard fonts.

Also have a list of substitution fonts if necessary.
