Akihiro Motoki 16b9486bf7 PDF documentation build
- Add a new pdf-docs environment to enable PDF build.
- sphinxcontrib-svg2pdfconverter is used to handle SVG properly.
- maxlistdepth=10 in latex_elements is needed to handle
  deeper levels of nesting.
- Sample config/policy files are skipped in the PDF document
  as inline sample files cause LaTeX error [1] and direct links
  in PDF doc is discouraged. Note that sample-config and sample-policy
  need to be excluded to avoid the LaTeX error [1] and
  :orphan: is specified in those files.
