The hardware bug in POWER9 preventing use of the DAWR was fixed in
DD2.3. Set the CPU_FTR_DAWR feature bit on these newer systems to start
using it again, and update the documentation accordingly.
The CPU features for DD2.3 are currently determined by "DD2.2 or later"
logic. In adding DD2.3 as a discrete case for the first time here, I'm
carrying the quirks of DD2.2 forward to keep all behavior outside of
this DAWR change the same. This leaves the assessment and potential
removal of those quirks on DD2.3 for later.

Convert docs to ReST and add them to the arch-specific
book.
The conversion here was trivial, as almost every file there
was already using an elegant format close to ReST standard.
The changes were mostly to mark literal blocks and add a few
missing section title identifiers.
One note with regards to "--": on Sphinx, this can't be used
to identify a list, as it will format it badly. This can be
used, however, to identify a long hyphen - and "---" is an
even longer one.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
