Major Hayden e57593dfd4 Automate the STIG documentation 
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.)

The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) must be disabled if it's not needed. Although this protocol is occasionally used in some OpenStack environments for quality of service functions, it is not in the default implementation.

To opt-out of this change, simply change the following variable to no:

security_disable_module_dccp: no

NOTE: The module will be disabled on the next reboot.
