Remove inappropriate sexual (and ableist) text from the locking
documentation, aligning it with the kernel code-of-conduct. As the text
was unrelated to locking, this change streamlines the document and
improves readability.

During the process of converting the documentation to reST, some links
were converted using the following wrong syntax (and sometimes using %20
instead of spaces):
`Display text <#section-name-in-html>`__
This syntax isn't valid according to the docutils' spec [1], but more
importantly, it is specific to HTML, since it uses '#' to link to an
HTML anchor.
The right syntax would instead use a docutils hyperlink reference as the
embedded URI to point to the section [2], that is:
`Display text <Section Name_>`__
This syntax works in both HTML and PDF.
The LaTeX toolchain doesn't mind the HTML anchor syntax when generating
the pdf documentation (make pdfdocs), that is, the build succeeds but
the links don't work, but that syntax causes errors when trying to build
using the not-yet-merged rst2pdf:
ValueError: format not resolved, probably missing URL scheme or undefined destination target for 'Forcing%20Quiescent%20States'
So, use the correct syntax in order to have it work in all different
output formats.

Changeset 58ad30cf91 ("docs: fix reference to core-api/namespaces.rst")
enabled a new feature at Sphinx: it will now generate index for each
document title, plus to each chapter inside it.
There's a drawback, though: one document cannot have two sections
with the same name anymore.
A followup patch will change the logic of autosectionlabel to
avoid most creating references for every single section title,
but still we need to be able to reference the chapters inside
a document.
There are a few places where there are two chapters with the
same name. This patch renames one of the chapters, in order to
avoid symbol conflict within the same document.
PS.: as I don't speach Chinese, I had some help from a friend
(Wen Liu) at the Chinese translation for "publishing patches"

This patch fixes the following documentation build warning:
Warning: Documentation/kernel-hacking/hacking.rst references
a file that doesn't exist: Documentation/kbuild/namespaces.rst
According to the following patch:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11178727/
(doc: move namespaces.rst from kbuild/ to core-api/)
The file namespaces.rst was moved from kbuild to core-api
and renamed to symbol-namespaces.rst.
Therefore, this patch changes the reference to the document
kbuild/namespaces.rst in hacking.rst to
core-api/symbol-namespaces.rst

Convert the locking documents to ReST and add them to the
kernel development book where it belongs.
Most of the stuff here is just to make Sphinx to properly
parse the text file, as they're already in good shape,
not requiring massive changes in order to be parsed.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Since strlcpy is deprecated, the documentation shouldn't suggest using
it. This patch fixes the examples to use strscpy instead. It also uses
sizeof instead of underlying constants as far as possible, to simplify
future changes to the corresponding data structures.

The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents
there are written at different times: some use markdown,
some use their own peculiar logic to split sections.
Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much
the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups.

- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
