Hi all,

  as recently came up in another thread, IMHO it makes sense to have the
FATE documentation as HTML so it can be put up and linked to from the
website.

  This is my first try to accomplish this.

1/3 doc: build: TEXIDEP: Recognize verbatim includes

  The 1st patch is kind of independent from the rest of this series.
Could also be applied if we decide against the other patches, assuming
it does not contain errors. Though there is currently no particular need
to have it applied.

2/3 doc: fate: Move documentation from .txt to .texi

  The 2nd one actually moves the FATE documentation from plain text to
Texinfo format. It is basically a move from the content of the former
doc/fate.txt to doc/fate.texi, plus some added markup and the addition
of the fate-rsync item in the targets list. The addition of the target
could also be split. Please speak up anyone, who wants this as separate
commits.

3/3 doc: fate: Support building a plain text version

  The 3rd patch enables building a fate.txt version. It looks similar to
the one that was in place before. Any opinions? Objections?

  When the third page is applied, the dependencies generated for fate.txt
include a dependency not needed for the fate.txt as I put the verbatim
inclusion of the fate config example under @ifdef html. I personally don't
consider it worth it prevent this though.

  Sorry, for the long mail! I am eagerly awaiting your comments :)
