Specially on kAPI, sometimes it is desirable to be able to describe global variables that are part of kAPI. Documenting vars with Sphinx is simple, as we don't need to parse a data struct. All we need is the variable declaration and use natice C domain ::c:var: to format it for us. Add support for it.
