Luz Cazares d1bfd90593 Add support for new doc PTI jobs
Implement optional cleanup to support the new PTI jobs
for documentation which won't use tox anymore.

Docs tox environment will still available for developers but
it is no loger used in the gate to construct the documentation.

Refstack-Client Specifications
==============================
This folder is used to hold design specifications for additions
to the refstack-client project. Reviews of the specs are done in gerrit, using a
similar workflow to how we review and merge changes to the code itself.
The layout of this folder is as follows::
specs/<release>/
specs/<release>/approved
specs/<release>/implemented
The lifecycle of a specification
--------------------------------
Specifications are proposed by adding an .rst file to the
``specs/<release>/approved`` directory and posting it for review. You can
find an example specification in ``/specs/template.rst``.
Once a specification has been fully implemented, meaning a patch has landed,
it will be moved to the ``implemented`` directory and the corresponding
blueprint will be marked as complete.
`Specifications are only approved for a single release`. If a specification
was previously approved but not implemented (or not completely implemented),
then the specification needs to be re-proposed by copying (not move) it to
the right directory for the current release.
Previously approved specifications
----------------------------------
The refstack-client specs directory was created during the Newton cycle.
Therefore, the specs approved and implemented prior to the Newton cycle will
be saved in the ``RefStack`` project.
Others
------
Please note, Launchpad blueprints are still used for tracking the status of the
blueprints. For more information, see::
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Blueprints
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/refstack
For more information about working with gerrit, see::
http://docs.openstack.org/infra/manual/developers.html#development-workflow
To validate that the specification is syntactically correct (i.e. get more
confidence in the Jenkins result), please execute the following command::
$ tox -e docs
