Background of migration from Asciidoc to XML

Asciidoc used in debian-reference was derived from very old version of
Asciidoc.  Modern Asciidoc output has too much changes to be used by
this package.

On the top of this, this old Asciidoc is written in python2.  Since
python2 is not available in bullseye, I decided to migrate source to
XML.

Of course, editing the old Asciidoc is much easier than fiddling with
XML.  So the trick is for me to keep Asciidoc based source in separate
branch and its generated XML files are added to this source to keep this
source tree clean.

I broke debian-reference.rawxml file in small files so I can edit them
directly with ease if I wish to do so.  In the build process, these
smaller XML files are merged back to debian-reference.rawxml.  The
helper tool to split and merge back is kept here.
