docs-rst: Don't mangle with UTF-8 chars on LaTeX/PDF output
pdflatex doesn't accept using some UTF-8 chars, like "equal or less than" or "equal or greater than" chars. However, the media documents use them. So, we need to use XeLaTeX for conversion, and a font that accepts such characters. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
