2021-11-08docs: remove non-reference uses of single backticksJohn Snow
The single backtick markup in ReST is the "default role". Currently, Sphinx's default role is called "content". Sphinx suggests you can use the "Any" role instead to turn any single-backtick enclosed item into a cross-reference. This is useful for things like autodoc for Python docstrings, where it's often nicer to reference other types with `foo` instead of the more laborious :py:meth:`foo`. It's also useful in multi-domain cases to easily reference definitions from other Sphinx domains, such as referencing C code definitions from outside of kerneldoc comments. Before we do that, though, we'll need to turn all existing usages of the "content" role to inline verbatim markup wherever it does not correctly resolve into a cross-refernece by using double backticks instead.

2021-08-02docs: Format literals correctlyPeter Maydell
In rST markup, single backticks `like this` represent "interpreted text", which can be handled as a bunch of different things if tagged with a specific "role": https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#interpreted-text (the most common one for us is "reference to a URL, which gets hyperlinked"). The default "role" if none is specified is "title_reference", intended for references to book or article titles, and it renders into the HTML as <cite>...</cite> (usually comes out as italics). This commit fixes various places in the manual which were using single backticks when double backticks (for literal text) were intended, and covers those files where only one or two instances of these errors were made.
