Done. The only thing left was the original docbook title and author
information.
The diff also showed that I was a little lazy manually adjust the
gadget.rst document ;) The enclosed patch should fix those issues.
I'll likely fold it with other patches when sending a version 2.

[PATCH] docs-rst: improve docbook-converted documents
The output of Documentation/sphinx/tmplcvt showed that a few
adjustments could be done in order to improve the output of
the two files that were converted from docbook:
- Use the original title from docbook;
- Add author info;
- Add C references for source code xrefs;
- Use monospaced fonts to be consistent with other docs.
