Peter Maydell 5a4b0d4112 qemu-option-trace.rst.inc: Don't use option:: markup
Sphinx 3.2 is pickier than earlier versions about the option:: markup,
and complains about our usage in qemu-option-trace.rst:

../../docs/qemu-option-trace.rst.inc:4:Malformed option description
  '[enable=]PATTERN', should look like "opt", "-opt args", "--opt args",
  "/opt args" or "+opt args"

In this file, we're really trying to document the different parts of
the top-level --trace option, which qemu-nbd.rst and qemu-img.rst
have already introduced with an option:: markup.  So it's not right
to use option:: here anyway.  Switch to a different markup
(definition lists) which gives about the same formatted output.

(Unlike option::, this markup doesn't produce index entries; but
at the moment we don't do anything much with indexes anyway, and
in any case I think it doesn't make much sense to have individual
index entries for the sub-parts of the --trace option.)

Specify tracing options.
``[enable=]PATTERN``
Immediately enable events matching *PATTERN*
(either event name or a globbing pattern). This option is only
available if QEMU has been compiled with the ``simple``, ``log``
or ``ftrace`` tracing backend. To specify multiple events or patterns,
specify the :option:`-trace` option multiple times.
Use :option:`-trace help` to print a list of names of trace points.
``events=FILE``
Immediately enable events listed in *FILE*.
The file must contain one event name (as listed in the ``trace-events-all``
file) per line; globbing patterns are accepted too. This option is only
available if QEMU has been compiled with the ``simple``, ``log`` or
``ftrace`` tracing backend.
``file=FILE``
Log output traces to *FILE*.
This option is only available if QEMU has been compiled with
the ``simple`` tracing backend.
