Admonitions call out places where the user should take special care.
Support added for HTML, PDF, Markdown and help text renderers. XML files have been updated accordingly.

By default the documentation builds pgBackRest from source, but the documentation is also a good way to smoke-test packages.
Allow a package file to be specified by passing --var=package=/path/to/package.ext. This works for Debian and CentOS 6 builds.
Keywords were extremely limited and prevented us from generating multi-version documentation and other improvements.
Replace keywords with an if statement that can evaluate a Perl expression with variable replacement.
Since keywords were used to generate cache keys, add a --key-var parameter to identify which variables should make up the key.
This allows the documentation to be built more quickly and offline during development when --pre is specified on the command line.
Each host gets a pre-built container with all the execute elements marked pre. As long as the pre elements do not change the container will not need to be rebuilt.
The feature should not be used for CI builds as it may hide errors in the documentation.
* Build containers from scratch for more accurate testing.
* Allow environment load to be skipped.
* Allow bash wrapping to be skipped.
* Allow forcing a command to run as a user without sudo.
The host-*-ip variable is created from the id param so the name param can be changed without affecting the host-*-ip variable. If id is not specified then it is copied from name.
* Documentation can now be built with reusable blocks to reduce duplication.
* Added ability to pass options to containers within the documentation.
* Add proper tag to slightly emphasize proper nouns.
Bug Fixes:
* Fixed and issue that suppressed exceptions in PDF builds.
Features:
* Allow a source to be included as a section so large documents can be broken up.
* Added section link support to Markdown output.
* Added list support to PDF output.
* Added include option to explicitly build sources (complements the exclude option though both cannot be used in the same invocation).
* Added keyword-add option to add keywords without overriding the default keyword.
* Added debug option to doc.pl to easily add the debug keyword to documentation builds.
* Added pre option to doc.pl to easily add the pre keyword to documentation builds.
Refactoring:
* Improvements to markdown rendering.
* Remove code dependency on project variable, instead use title param.
Bug Fixes:
* Fixed missing variable replacements.
* Removed hard-coded host names from configuration file paths.
Documentation Features:
* Allow command-line length to be configured using cmd-line-len param.
* Added compact param to allow CSS to be embedded in HTML file.
* Added pretty param to produce HTML with proper indenting.
* Only generate HTML menu when required and don't require index page.
* Assign numbers to sections by default.
* VM mount points are now optional.
Allow hidden options to be added to a command. This allows certain commands (like apt-get) to be forced during the build without making that a part of the documentation.
Release notes are now broken into sections so that bugs, features, and refactors are clearly delineated. An "Additional Notes" section has been added for changes to documentation and the test suite that do not affect the core code.
The change log was the last piece of documentation to be rendered in Markdown only. Wrote a converter so the document can be output by the standard renderers. The change log will now be located on the website and has been renamed to "Releases".
