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 STIG requires that secure ICMP redirects are disabled, but this can cause
issues in some virtualized or containerized environments. The Ansible tasks
in the security role will not disable these redirects by default.
Deployers who want to enable the task (and disable ICMP redirects), should set
the following Ansible variable:
.. code-block:: yaml
security_disable_icmpv4_redirects_secure: yes
