Formatting changes and fixing of build warnings
Applying a different sphinx rendering theme to make the document more readable (in my opinion). The Sphinx config file is based on the config file of the Copper project. Moreover, this change fixes a few build-time warnings. Change-Id: I78f5268436edcfa8c71b8e85a99c7caa54a0e099 Signed-off-by: Georg Kunz <georg.kunz@ericsson.com> (cherry picked from commit 12542964182af4da4daeb58219377a5d1f697ecf)
