docs: kbuild: fix build with pdf and fix some minor issues
The tag ".. include" should be replaced by ".. literalinclude" at issues.rst, otherwise it causes TeX to crash due to excessive usage of stack with Sphinx 2.0. While here, solve a few minor issues at the kbuild book output by adding extra blank lines. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org>
