| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix as many instances of unbalanced-inline-literals-delimiters as reported by 'make sphinx-lint' as possible. Sphinx and/or its linter seem to get tripped up randomly when references contain links to a heading which contain literals enclosed in double-back-tics; especially in the cases where a heading either contains multiple literals or when the literal is not at the end of the heading. Not all of them can be "fixed" to pass both building and linting.

* requirements: move Ubuntu-20.04 into unsupported category due to pythonPaul Gortmaker2025-03-281-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Bitbake commit 0d2e682d00df ("bitbake: lib/bb: Bump minimum python version requirement to 3.9" -- poky commit 67566c7410e1) means that Ubuntu 20.04 is no longer supported out-of-the-box as detailed further in the respective commit log. While it is true that it can still be used with buildtools, that can also be said for nearly every other unsupported distro out there, including Ubuntu 18.04 that we listed as unsupported some years ago. Hence continuing to list it as supported with the new python requirement in place does not make sense. So we move it alongside of the 18.04 entry, into the "possibly tested, but you get what you get" category. And add an explicit mention of the buildtools, so people have a thread to pull on.
