[PATCH 04/10] docs/qapidoc: support header-less freeform sections
Posted by John Snow 1 month, 1 week ago
The code as written crashes when a free-form documentation block doesn't
start with a heading or subheading, for example:

| ##
| # Just text, no heading.
| ##

The code will attempt to use the `node` variable uninitialized. To fix,
create a generic block to insert the doc text into.

(This patch also removes a lingering pylint warning in the QAPIDoc
implementation that prevents getting a clean baseline to use for
forthcoming additions.)

Fixes: 43e0d14ee09a (docs/sphinx: fix extra stuff in TOC after freeform QMP sections)

Let's add a suitable free-form block to tests/qapi-schema/doc-good.json
to catch regressions.  Not worth a respin by itself.

With the appended obvious fixup:
