docs: add tools/docs/gen-renames.py Add a new script that wraps git to trawl the repository history for renames of .rst files in the Documentation/ directory. Example usage: tools/docs/gen-renames.py --rev v6.17-rc3 > Documentation/.renames.txt The output format is simply: <old path> SPACE <new path> NEWLINE where neither <old path> nor <new path> contain the Documentation/ prefix or the .rst suffix. The file is sorted alphabetically. We can suggest rerunning the script for future renames (and squash the resulting change) or rerun it periodically to keep the file up to date.
