HTML is the default and always built. You need install to get a suitable
directory tree to review with a `file://....` URL. Details are here but nothing
is specifically said about HTML being always built:

https://git.rtems.org/rtems-docs/tree/README.txt#n336

The rules are not defined and maybe they should be.

1. HTML is always built and must build. Checking HTML is a requirement for
posting a patch for review.

2. PDF is optional because the latex support is not consistent across all build
hosts.

3. Please check the automatically built docs after a push to make sure all
formats look suitable. Post a follow up patch if adjustments are needed.

Comments?
