With the upcoming changes to rebase onto the RHEL 7 STIG controls, there needs to be a new solution for documentation that is easier to manage and filter. This patch automates the generation of the STIG control documentation in the following way: * A Sphinx extension runs early in the doc build process that writes all of the individual STIG control docs as well as ToC pages. * ToC pages are now sorted by severity, tag, and implementation status. * A giant listing of controls is easier to navigate now. * Docs are generated from metadata in the /doc/metadata directory. New documentation only needs to be added there. (Will explain this in the developer notes in a subsequent patch.) Implements: blueprint security-rhel7-stig Change-Id: I455af1121049f52193e98e2c9cb1ba5d4c292386

**Exception**
|
|
|
|
Removing serial consoles from ``/etc/securetty`` can make troubleshooting
|
|
a server extremely difficult. Deployers are urged to use strong physical
|
|
security practices to prevent unauthorized users from gaining physical access
|
|
to critical hosts. In addition, out-of-band systems that allow for serial
|
|
over LAN access should also be heavily secured.
