keyword or by introducing a legacy Kconfig option.

This page has a lot more information about APIs than just stability,
and I believe it's currently our only exhaustive list of APIs.
Rename it to API Overview.

Move the section describing the requirements for a new API out of the
peripheral API header, clarify the requirements for upgrading an API to
experimental and unstable clearly in the corresponding sections. Add a
link to the API stability page.

In order to make technical progress possible, some stable APIs
may sometimes need to be modified in a non backwards-compatible way.
Describe the process for integrating such changes in the documentation.

Remove leading/trailing blank lines in .c, .h, .py, .rst, .yml, and
.yaml files.
Will avoid failures with the new CI test in
https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/ci-tools/pull/112, though it only
checks changed files.
Move the 'target-notes' target in boards/xtensa/odroid_go/doc/index.rst
to get rid of the trailing blank line there. It was probably misplaced.

As discussed in the TSC meeting of 2019/03/27:
To ensure that we do not forget to remove an API 2 releases later
and to provide a bit better visibility about when the removal
is planned, require that a GH issue be created, and that this
issue be added to the roadmap for the apropriate release.
As a free bonus:
Removed a redundant line in the list and added one missing article.
