Generate HTML via make4ht (#20)
This patch generates HTML files with "make4ht" in the "html" directory.
Known issues with "make4ht":
Running "make4ht -suf html5 -d html lkmpg.tex" will cause the following
flaws:
1. The layout was unsatisfying.
2. After parsing TeX, it stoped at "\tableofcontents" with errors.
3. Several unneeded files were generated.
4. No way to specify the destination filename for HTML generation.
Solutions/workaround:
1. Use customized configuration file "html.cfg" to specify the layout style.
2. Turn off the \tableofcontents section when using make4ht. However, this
results in the lack of table of contents in HTML. It can be fixed by
appending "\Configure{tableofcontents*}{chapter,section,subsection}"
to configuration file.
3. The build system removes the temporary files.
4. Use a symbolic link "index.html" to "lkmpg.html".
