This commit aims to improve the documentation's navigability by
redefining some categories' purposes and titles.
There is a redirection rule for each documentation page moved.
This ensures that users won't have a 404 error message.

Many customers struggle with their web server configuration, notably
regarding the `--proxy-mode` option and the way `X-Forwarded-*` HTTP
request headers are interpreted within Odoo.
The `--proxy-mode` section has been updated to cover the most common
misunderstandings and to give guidances on how to setup a web server.
Odoo always only takes the last entry of the `X-Forwarded-*` request
header because there are situations where it is not possible to
determine which last n-th entry to use. Employees might access their
odoo database via the internal network: connecting directly to nginx,
while customers might access the database via an additional proxy such
as cloudflare. The real IP of employees would be the last inside the
`X-Forwarded-For` chain, while the real IP of customers would be the
*second* last entry inside the chain. It would be incorrect to always
take the same nth last entry inside the chain. The cloudflare's own IP
address must be discarded from the chain. Web servers usually feature
a way to ignore trusted IP from the chain, a way so that the real IP
of the user is always the last entry inside the chain. Odoo relies on
such feature to be active and configured.
Prior discussions about `X-Forwarded-For`:

* odoo/odoo#118629
* odoo/odoo#139536
All `X-Forwarded-*` headers are ignored in case the `X-Forwarded-Host`
header is missing (even with `--proxy-mode`). System admin might be
tempted to not set this header and to set `Host` instead, this is
broken as this a user-agent would be able to spoof `X-Forwarded-Host`
and Odoo would use that instead of the correct `Host`.

In the CLI, `--unaccent` try to enable PostgreSQL unaccent extention
when odoo is responsible to create new database(s).

The documentation is unclear about the unit used for the --limit-memory-soft
and --limit-memory-hard options of odoo-bin. The unit used is bytes, but
it isn't mentioned and the default unit is shown in mebibytes, causing
confusion.

This PR moves the introduction about the different installation methods and editions found on the
install/install.rst page directly under the main install/ page. It creates three pages, one per
installation method documented on the install/install.rst page (Docker being documented on
docker.com and maintained by us), and moves the related content there. In addition, it fixes various
typos/grammar issues and improves the content according to the documentation guidelines. Various
references and links across the documentation had to be fixed accordingly.

The deploy documentation is assuming that `/etc/odoo.conf` is the
default config file, which is not the case.
With this commit, the configuration file references the cli
documentation.
