generate rst doc pages for command line tools (#27530)

* let generate_man also gen rst pages for cli tools
* make template-file, output-dir, output format cli options for generate_man
* update main Makefile to use generate_man.py for docs (man pages and rst)
* update vault docs that use :option:
* Edits based on
6e34ea6242 and
a3afc78535

* add a optparse 'desc' to lib/ansible/cli/config.py 

  The man page needs a short desc for the 'NAME' field
  which it gets from the option parse 'desc' value.

  Fixes building ansible-config man page.

* add trim_docstring from pep257 to generate_man

  use pep258 docstring trim function to fix up any indention
  weirdness inherit to doc strings (ie, lines other than
  first line being indented.

* Add refs to cli command actions

To reference ansible-vaults --vault-id option, use:

:option:`The link text here <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

or:

:option:`--vault-id <ansible-vault --vault-id>`

To reference ansible-vault's 'encrypt' action, use:

:ref:`The link text here <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

or most of the time:

:ref:`ansible-vault encrypt <ansible_vault_encrypt>`

@ -5,7 +5,7 @@ Ansible Vault
New in Ansible 1.5, "Vault" is a feature of ansible that allows keeping sensitive data such as passwords or keys in encrypted files, rather than as plaintext in your playbooks or roles. These vault files can then be distributed or placed in source control.
To enable this feature, a command line tool, :ref:`ansible-vault` is used to edit files, and a command line flag `--ask-vault-pass` or `--vault-password-file` is used. Alternately, you may specify the location of a password file or command Ansible to always prompt for the password in your ansible.cfg file. These options require no command line flag usage.
