docs: Add automatic cross-reference for C types
In order to cross-reference C types in the documentation, Sphinx requires the syntax :c:type:`type_name`, or even :c:type:`struct type_name <type_name>` in order to have the link text different from the target text. Extend automarkup to enable automatic cross-reference of C types by matching any "struct|union|enum|typedef type_name" expression. This makes the documentation's plain text cleaner and adds cross-reference to types without any additional effort by the author. Signed-off-by: Nícolas F. R. A.
