docs: add a .pylintrc file with sys path for docs scripts

mchehab · Jonathan Corbet · commit 02df8e3b333c · 2025-04-09T12:10:33.000-06:00
The docs scripts that are used by Documentation/sphinx are using scripts/lib/* directories to place classes that will be used by both extensions and scripts. When pylint is used, it needs to identify the path where such scripts are, otherwise it will bail out. Add a simple RC file placing the location of such files.
