maintainers: add a helper script for the options doc conversion

this script can be used to attempt an automatic conversion of option
docs for most modules. it'll also show a diff of options.json before and
after the changes, which should be a good form for checking for unwanted
changes. we specifically show a json diff rather than an xml diff
because newline changes in json are "\n" added are removed, and those
are easier for diff tools to pick out and show in a meaningful way for
this process.

it does *not* check for incorrectly applied changes though, those aren't
easy enough to do automatically for this script.

This script attempts to automatically convert option descriptions from
DocBook syntax to markdown. Naturally this process is incomplete and
imperfect, so any changes generated by this script MUST be reviewed.
Possible problems include: incorrectly replaced tags, badly formatted
markdown, DocBook tags this script doesn't recognize remaining in the
output and crashing the docs build, incorrect escaping of markdown
metacharacters, incorrect unescaping of XML entities—and the list goes on.
Always review the generated changes!
