feat: flip swap mechanism on circinus — MD as primary, RST as override
Mirror of #1899 for circinus. Same logic, same scripts, per-branch file set. Changes: - Rename docs/**/md-<stem>.md to docs/**/<stem>.md (drop md- prefix) for all 253 stems previously listed in docs/_swap.txt - Rename docs/**/<stem>.rst to docs/**/rst-<stem>.rst (add rst- prefix) for the same 253 stems - Repurpose docs/_swap.txt as docs/_rst_overrides.txt; initially empty - conf.py exclude_patterns flipped: rst-*.rst excluded by default - conf.py runtime-artifact references updated to _rst_override_state.json and _md_exclude.txt - scripts/swap_sources.py rewritten with inverted rename direction (rst-<stem>.rst → <stem>.rst when applying overrides; <stem>.md excluded via _md_exclude.txt) - scripts/import_myst.py and tests/test_import_myst.py deleted (obsolete) - tests/test_swap_sources.py rewritten for new semantics Identical change set to #1899 (current). Per-branch differences: - circinus has 253 stems vs current's 254 (suricata is current-only) - otherwise the script/conf.py/test changes are byte-identical with current Generated by robots https://vyos.io
