Update the Sphinx installation instructions in the documentation
contributors guide to reflect the fact that in the 1.4+ versions
of Sphinx the ReadTheDocs theme must also be installed. Previously,
in version 1.3.x, it was installed by default.
Also change 'yum' to 'dnf' for package installations.

The git messages have three parts:
1/ the headline
2/ the explanations
3/ the footer tags
The headline helps to quickly browse an history or catch instantly the
purpose of a commit. Making it short with some consistent wording
allows to easily parse it or match some patterns.
The explanations must give some keys like the reason of the change.
Nothing can be automatically checked for this part, except line length.
The footer contains some tags to find the origin of a bug or who
was working on it.
This script is doing some basic checks mostly on parts 1 and 3.

The physically linked-together combined library has been an increasing
source of problems, as was predicted when library and symbol versioning
was introduced. Replace the complex and fragile construction with a
simple linker script which achieves the same without all the problems,
remove the related kludges from eg mlx drivers.
Since creating the linker script is practically zero cost, remove the
config option and just create it always.
Based on a patch by Sergio Gonzales Monroy, linker script approach
initially suggested by Neil Horman.

This patch adds the patch submission cheatsheet to
the contributers guide. Both HTML and PDF docs show

Right clicking the SVG image in the HTML doc allows

The exact appearance of of the cheatsheet will depend
