[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/4] improve output when building docs

When building the documentation, a lot of text is output, meaning that
any warnings can be missed in all the text. Unfortunately, ninja merges
both stderr and stdout of all tasks so one cannot just redirect stdout to
a separate location as part of the build command to rectify that.
Therefore, since we rarely care about the output of the doc builds, only
output the stderr text and write the standard output text to a log file
in the relevant build folder (i.e. build/doc/guides or build/doc/api)

Bruce Richardson (4):
  doc/api: hide verbose doxygen standard output
  doc/api: align output folder with sphinx guides
  doc/api: put output log file in build directory
  doc/guides: suppress printing out standard output
