ff82e08aa3 doc: fix navigation levels in html sidebar of guides
Fix issue where the navigation levels weren't displayed in the
html sidebar with the new read_the_docs theme.

This was due to the :titlesonly: directive in the high level
index.rst and also due to a stray newline in the parsed version
number.

1703e94ac5 qat: add driver for QuickAssist devices
This patch adds a PMD for the Intel Quick Assist Technology DH895xxC
hardware accelerator.

This patch depends on a QAT PF driver for device initialization. See
the file docs/guides/cryptodevs/qat.rst for configuration details

This patch supports a limited subset of QAT device functionality,
currently supporting chaining of cipher and hash operations for the
following algorithmsd:

Cipher algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_CIPHER_AES_CBC (with 128-bit, 192-bit and 256-bit keys supported)

Hash algorithms:
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA1_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA256_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_SHA512_HMAC
  - RTE_CRYPTO_AUTH_AES_XCBC_MAC

Some limitation on this patchset which shall be contributed in a
subsequent release:
 - Chained mbufs are not supported.
 - Hash only is not supported.
 - Cipher only is not supported.
 - Only in-place is currently supported (destination address is
   the same as source address).
 - Only supports session-oriented API implementation (session-less
   APIs are not supported).
