docs: make reporting-issues.rst official and delete reporting-bugs.rst

2021-03-31T19:33:17Z

Remove the WIP and two FIXME notes in the text to make it official, as it's now considered fully ready for consumption. To make sure this step is okay for people the intent of this change and the latest version of the text were posted to ksummit-discuss; nobody complained, thus lets move ahead. Add a footer to point out people can contact Thorsten directly in case they find something to improve in the text. Dear reporting-bugs.rst, I'm sorry to tell you, but that makes you fully obsolete and we thus have to let you go now. Thank you very much for your service, you in one form or another have been around for a long time. I'm sure over the years you got read a lot and helped quite a few people. But it's time to retire now. Rest in peace.

docs: make reporting-bugs.rst obsolete

2020-12-08T17:33:27Z

Make various places which point to Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-bugs.rst point to Documentation/admin-guide/reporting-issues.rst instead. That document is brand new and as of now is not completely finished. But even at this stage it's a lot more helpful and accurate than reporting-bugs.rst. Hence also add a note to reporting-bugs.rst, telling people they're better off reading reporting-issues.rst instead. reporting-bugs.rst is scheduled for removal once reporting-issues.rst is considered ready.

Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: documentation

2020-06-08T15:30:19Z

Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
