[PATCH v4 04/11] scripts: kernel-doc: Translate the "Output format selection" subsection of OPTIONS

From: Tomasz Warniełło
Date: Fri Feb 18 2022 - 13:17:05 EST


Another step in the direction of a uniform POD documentation, which will
make users happier.

Options land at the end of the script, not to clutter the file top.

The default output format is corrected to rst. That's what it is now.

A POD delimiting comment is added to the script head, which improves
the script logical structure.
