4ef5a0b2e1 docs: UML: Mention telnetd for port channel
It is not obvious from the documentation that using the "port" channel
for the console requires telnetd to be installed (see port_connection()
in arch/um/drivers/port_user.c).  Mention this, and the fact that UML
will not boot until a client connects.

04301bf5b0 docs: replace the old User Mode Linux HowTo with a new one
The new HowTo migrates the portions of the old howto which
are still relevant to a new document, updates them to linux 5.x
and adds documentation for vector transports and other new
features.

7d94ab169b docs: virt: convert UML documentation to ReST
Despite being an old document, it contains lots of information
that could still be useful.

The document has a nice style with makes easy to convert to
ReST. So, let's convert it to ReST.

This patch does:

	- Use proper markups for titles;
	- Mark and proper indent literal blocks;
	- don't use an 'o' character for lists;
	- other minor changes required for the doc to be parsed.

2f5947dfca Documentation: move Documentation/virtual to Documentation/virt
Renaming docs seems to be en vogue at the moment, so fix on of the
grossly misnamed directories.  We usually never use "virtual" as
a shortcut for virtualization in the kernel, but always virt,
as seen in the virt/ top-level directory.  Fix up the documentation
to match that.
