doc build requirements

Hi,

I notice that now - since

commit ec868e4ee2bcebb9e4c03979d90e0ac0b79fe05a

    docs-rst: media: build SVG from graphviz files

was merged, it is strictly necessary to have `dot' installed to build
documentation - there isn't even any fallback.

Now, it's not hard to install, so I have no major objection against it,
but I wanted to take the opportunity to point out that this seems a bit
arbitrary - last I tried adding new functionality and *didn't* even
make it a build requirement (logging only a warning if not installed) I
was told I can't add such a thing.

Does this mean something has changed and I can try again? :)
