If the directory passed to the '.. kernel-feat::' directive does not
exist or the get_feat.pl script does not find any files to extract
features from, Sphinx will report the following error:
Sphinx parallel build error:
UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fname' referenced before assignment
make[2]: *** [Documentation/Makefile:102: htmldocs] Error 2
This is due to how I changed the script in c48a7c44a1 ("docs:
kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection"). Before that, the
filename passed along to self.nestedParse() in this case was weirdly
just the whole get_feat.pl invocation.
We can fix it by doing what kernel_abi.py does -- just pass
self.arguments[0] as 'fname'.

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.
Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).
This also makes the code shorter.
This is analogous to commit 3231dd5862 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

Python 3.6 introduced a DeprecationWarning for invalid escape sequences.
This is upgraded to a SyntaxWarning in Python 3.12, and will eventually
be a syntax error.
Fix these now to get ahead of it before it's an error.

As promised, drop support for some ancient sphinx releases, along with a
lot of the cruft that was required to make that support work.
