Now that building html docs with math expressions does not need texlive
packages, remove the note on the requirement in the "Sphinx Install"
section.
Instead, add sections of "Math Expressions in HTML" and "Choice of Math
Renderer".
Describe the effect of setting SPHINX_IMGMATH in the latter section.

With kernel releases v5.18 and later, if you have Inkscape, images
embedded in PDF documents are of vector graphics, not the raster
images as are the case with pre-v5.18 releases.
Even with pre-5.18 releases, having Inkscape would improve images
converted from some of SVG files which are not fully covered by the
limited capability of rsvg-convert(1) [1].
Add a footnote mentioning the expected improvements of such images.

Our documentation encourages the use of list-table formats, but that advice
runs counter to the objective of keeping the plain-text documentation as
useful and readable as possible. Turn that advice around the other way so
that people don't keep adding these tables.

Instead of having RTD as an almost mandatory theme, allow the
user to select other themes via DOCS_THEME environment var.
There's a catch, though: as the current theme override logic is
dependent of the RTD theme, we need to move the code which
adds the CSS overrides to be inside the RTD theme logic.

Commit f546ff0c0c ("Move our minimum Sphinx version to 1.7") raised
the minimum version to 1.7.
For pdfdocs, sphinx_pre_install says:
note: If you want pdf, you need at least Sphinx 2.4.4.
, and current requirements.txt installs Sphinx 2.4.4.
Update Sphinx versions mentioned in docs and remove a note on earlier
Sphinx versions.

Various fixes to sphinx.rst:
- eliminate a double-space between 2 words
- grammar/wording
- punctuation
- call rows in a table 'rows' instead of 'columns' (or does Sphinx
call everything a column?)
- It seems that "amdfonts" should be "amsfonts". I can't find any
amdfonts.
