docs-rst: create an user's manual book

Place README, REPORTING-BUGS, SecurityBugs and kernel-parameters
on an user's manual book.

As we'll be numbering the user's manual, remove the manual
numbering from SecurityBugs.

+Software cursor for VGA
+=======================
+
+by Pavel Machek <pavel@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz>
+and Martin Mares <mj@atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz>
+
+Linux now has some ability to manipulate cursor appearance. Normally, you
+can set the size of hardware cursor (and also work around some ugly bugs in
+those miserable Trident cards [#f1]_. You can now play a few new tricks:
+you can make your cursor look
+
+like a non-blinking red block, make it inverse background of the character it's
+over or to highlight that character and still choose whether the original
+hardware cursor should remain visible or not.  There may be other things I have
+never thought of.
+
+The cursor appearance is controlled by a ``<ESC>[?1;2;3c`` escape sequence
+where 1, 2 and 3 are parameters described below. If you omit any of them,
+they will default to zeroes.
+
+first Parameter
+	specifies cursor size::
+
+		0=default
+		1=invisible
+		2=underline,
+		...
+		8=full block
+		+ 16 if you want the software cursor to be applied
+		+ 32 if you want to always change the background color
+		+ 64 if you dislike having the background the same as the
+		     foreground.
+
+	Highlights are ignored for the last two flags.
+
+second parameter
+	selects character attribute bits you want to change
+	(by simply XORing them with the value of this parameter). On standard
+	VGA, the high four bits specify background and the low four the
+	foreground. In both groups, low three bits set color (as in normal
+	color codes used by the console) and the most significant one turns
+	on highlight (or sometimes blinking -- it depends on the configuration
+	of your VGA).
+
+third parameter
+	consists of character attribute bits you want to set.
+
+	Bit setting takes place before bit toggling, so you can simply clear a
+	bit by including it in both the set mask and the toggle mask.
+
+.. [#f1] see ``#define TRIDENT_GLITCH`` in ``drivers/video/vgacon.c``.
+
+Examples:
+=========
+
+To get normal blinking underline, use::
+
+	echo -e '\033[?2c'
+
+To get blinking block, use::
+
+	echo -e '\033[?6c'
+
+To get red non-blinking block, use::
+
+	echo -e '\033[?17;0;64c'
