cmake:
cd docbook
make release_notes

autotools:
cd docbook
make release_notes

OK, so they are identical. Main "problem" are the required tools, but
developers should be able to live with reading
docbook/release-notes.asciidoc instead of NEWS.

How about removing the NEWS file and "just" making sure that it is
generated for packaging?

Once that is done we can move to the asn1/ stuff - which should then be
moved to epan/dissectors/asn1/ ;-)

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
