This allows to switch to a more recent of Sphinx
which will generate warnings with old versions of docs.
This way, it's not immediately necessary to patch
all such versions.

What about doing this for all branches except master? To have at least some checks and not completely disable the warnings.

I'm a bit afraid we'll just not care about warnings anymore since they won't fail the autobuilder anymore. I also understand it's not really sustainable to leave them on for old docs since they won't be maintained at one point in time but we still very mnuch would like to be able to build them.

Not sure what's the best solution here right now unfortunately :/

Cheers,
Quentin
