This patch adds a new documentation file, ppc-spapr-numa.rst,
informing what developers and user can expect of the NUMA distance
support for the pseries machine, up to QEMU 5.1.
In the (hopefully soon) future, when we rework the NUMA mechanics
of the pseries machine to at least attempt to contemplate user
choice, this doc will be extended to inform about the new
support.

The docs/specs/index.rst has a couple of minor issues which
we didn't notice because we weren't building the manual:
* the ToC entry for the new PPC XIVE docs points to
a nonexistent file
* the initial comment needs to be marked by '..', not '.',
or it will appear in the output
* the title doesn't match the capitialization used by
the existing interop or devel manuals, and uses
'full-system emulation' rather than the 'system emulation'
that the interop manual title uses
Fix these minor issues before we start trying to build the manual.
