tools: docs: parse-headers.py: move it from sphinx dir

As suggested by Jon, we should start having a tools/docs
directory, instead of placing everything under scripts.

In the specific case of parse-headers.py, the previous
location is where we're placing Sphinx extensions, which is
not the right place for execs.

Move it to tools/docs/parse-headers.py.

"""
Ancillary argparse HelpFormatter class that works on a similar way as
argparse.RawDescriptionHelpFormatter, e.g. description maintains line
breaks, but it also implement transformations to the help text. The
actual transformations ar given by enrich_text(), if the output is tty.
Currently, the follow transformations are done:
- Positional arguments are shown in upper cases;
- if output is TTY, ``var`` and positional arguments are shown prepended
by an ANSI SGR code. This is usually translated to bold. On some
terminals, like, konsole, this is translated into a colored bold text.
