scripts/qemu-trace-stap: Convert documentation to rST
The qemu-trace-stap documentation is currently in
scripts/qemu-trace-stap.texi in Texinfo format, which we
present to the user as:
* a qemu-trace-stap manpage
* but not (unusually for QEMU) part of the HTML docs
Convert the documentation to rST format that lives in
the docs/ subdirectory, and present it to the user as:
* a qemu-trace-stap manpage
* part of the interop/ Sphinx manual
There are minor formatting changes to suit Sphinx, but no
content changes.
