The pre-release notes never capture everything, so we need to do an
update to finalize them after the release is tagged.
This captures on additional SoC added right before the release and
updates the statistics.

These are the final release notes for the 24.05 release before the tree
is marked with a tag, completing the release. We will update the notes
with final numbers and anything else after the release is tagged.
The 24.05 release will be announced a week later, barring any issues
that require an updated release tag.

After commit 35599f9a66 (Docs: Replace Recommonmark with MyST Parser),
embedded rST should use `{eval-rst}` instead of `eval_rst`. This was
missed during manual rebasing of that patch before it was merged.

Recommonmark has been deprecated since 2021 [1] and the last release was
over 3 years ago [2]. As per their announcement, Markedly Structured
Text (MyST) Parser [3] is the recommended replacement.
For the most part, the existing documentation is compatible with MyST,
as both parsers are built around the CommonMark flavor of Markdown. The
main difference that affects coreboot is how the Sphinx toctree is
generated. Recommonmark has a feature called auto_toc_tree, which
converts single level lists of references into a toctree:
* [Part 1: Starting from scratch](part1.md)
* [Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org](part2.md)
* [Part 3: Writing unit tests](part3.md)
* [Managing local additions](managing_local_additions.md)
* [Flashing firmware](flashing_firmware/index.md)
MyST Parser does not provide a replacement for this feature, meaning the
toctree must be defined manually. This is done using MyST's syntax for
Sphinx directives:
```{toctree}
:maxdepth: 1
Part 1: Starting from scratch <part1.md>
Part 2: Submitting a patch to coreboot.org <part2.md>
Part 3: Writing unit tests <part3.md>
Managing local additions <managing_local_additions.md>
Flashing firmware <flashing_firmware/index.md>
```
Internally, auto_toc_tree essentially converts lists of references into
the Sphinx toctree structure that the MyST syntax above more directly
represents.
The toctrees were converted to the MyST syntax using the following
command and Python script:
`find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 python conv_toctree.py`
```
import re
import sys
in_list = False
f = open(sys.argv[1])
lines = f.readlines()
f.close()
with open(sys.argv[1], "w") as f:
for line in lines:
match = re.match(r"^[-*+] \[(.*)\]\((.*)\)$", line)
if match is not None:
if not in_list:
in_list = True
f.write("```{toctree}\n")
f.write(":maxdepth: 1\n\n")
f.write(match.group(1) + " <" + match.group(2) + ">\n")
else:
if in_list:
f.write("```\n")
f.write(line)
in_list = False
if in_list:
f.write("```\n")
```
While this does add a little more work for creating the toctree, this
does give more control over exactly what goes into the toctree. For
instance, lists of links to external resources currently end up in the
toctree, but we may want to limit it to pages within coreboot.
This change does break rendering and navigation of the documentation in
applications that can render Markdown, such as Okular, Gitiles, or the
GitHub mirror. Assuming the docs are mainly intended to be viewed after
being rendered to doc.coreboot.org, this is probably not an issue in
practice.
Another difference is that MyST natively supports Markdown tables,
whereas with Recommonmark, tables had to be written in embedded rST [4].
However, MyST also supports embedded rST, so the existing tables can be
easily converted as the syntax is nearly identical.
These were converted using
`find ./ -iname "*.md" | xargs -n 1 sed -i "s/eval_rst/{eval-rst}/"`
Makefile.sphinx and conf.py were regenerated from scratch by running
`sphinx-quickstart` using the updated version of Sphinx, which removes a
lot of old commented out boilerplate. Any relevant changes coreboot had
made on top of the previous autogenerated versions of these files were
ported over to the newly generated file.
From some initial testing the generated webpages appear and function
identically to the existing documentation built with Recommonmark.
TEST: `make -C util/docker docker-build-docs` builds the documentation
successfully and the generated output renders properly when viewed in
a web browser.

Now that the 4.22 release tag has been added to git, update the release
notes with the final statistics and wording.
We also decided to add a fix submitted immediately after the 4.22
release was tagged into the release package and do a point release.
This also adds an expected date for the next release

The version of the 4.19 release notes on the server was updated with
signatures and a note explaining the new tarballs vs the original,
corrupted tarballs. That data didn't make it back to the version of
the release notes in the documentation.
Likewise, the updates in the documentation didn't get pushed to the
release directory on the website.
The website now has this version of the release notes that combines the
two. This patch does the same for the documentation folder.

This moves the release notes to 4.20.1, as was done with the 4.8 release
when it went to 4.8.1. The index.md file is updated for both the 4.20.1
and 4.8.1 releases, and extra spacing was added. This doesn't get shown
in the output, but makes the text version look better.

According to the author of the mainboard scaleway/tagada, the mainboard
is not used anymore. Since the mainboard is not publicly available for
purchase and not used anywhere else, the usual deprecation process
of 6 months is not needed.
Thus, to reduce the maintenance overhead for the community, support for
the following components will be removed from the master branch and will
be maintained on the release 4.19 branch. Also, add a note to the 4.20
release notes.

- The 4.19 release notes included a list of outstanding issues formatted
as a markdown table, which is not supported by Recommonmark. Reformat
as an embedded reStructuredText table.
- The table of boards supported on the 4.18 branch did not include row
separators causing all rows to be rendered in a single row of cells.
- Technotes/console.md had a typo in the rST table formatting which
generated warnings in the Sphinx build, causing the table to not be
rendered in the resulting html.
