Before odoo.sh had two types of role, `user` and `admin`. A third role, `tester`,
was added between the two, and the user role was renamed `developer`.

Prior to this commit, users had to either know in advance or guess the
location of the content they were looking for. Top-level pages of the
"Developer" section of the documentation, in particular the "Developer"
page itself, were listing their sub-pages without directions for users.
This commit brings the following changes to improve the navigation:
- add directions for users on the "Developer" page and list the three
main categories of developer documentation ("Tutorials", "How-to
guides", and "Reference") with explanations of their content and
target audience;
- add categories for content cards on the "Tutorials" and "How-to
guides" pages, and fine-tune the toctree of the "Reference" page to
more easily locate specific topics;
- clarify what are the "Python framework" and the "JavaScript framework"
by relabelling them to "Server framework" and "Web framework" on
top-level pages, as some users were confused to find that the JS
framework was not responsible for the server, and others that the
documentation for QWeb template is located in the Python documentation;
- extract the "Setup guide" from the "Getting started" tutorial and
rename the latter to "Server framework 101" to allow reusing the setup
guide in other tutorials and make clear that the "Server framework 101"
tutorial is not about the Web framework.

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.

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.

Changing the name of model payment.acquirer to payment.provider

use the term "acquirer" for systems that only provide a service
of payment.
After this commit the model payment.acquirer and everything

Before this commit, the "Developer/Misc" directory of the doc, and
more particularly the "Developer/Misc/Other" sub-directory, was used as
a garbage dump where we moved all the pages that didn't fit elsewhere.
Due to that, interesting and important pages, such as the Coding
Guidelines, were buried in that directory never to be read again by Odoo
developers.
This commit moves most pages under "Misc" one or two levels up to be
located directly under "Developer" hence making them more accessible. A
new "Contributing/Development" directory is added to host the Coding
Guidelines page and soon many other pages.

Since odoo/documentation#903, the guideline for the location of new
resource (images, downloadable files, RST includes...) files is to place
those inside the directory of the RST page that references them.
For example, if `doc1.rst` has a reference to `image.png` and to
`download.zip`, the file structure should look like this:
├── parent_doc/
│ └── doc1/
│ │ └── image.png
│ │ └── download.zip
│ └── doc1.rst
│ └── doc2.rst
├── parent_doc.rst
Before this commit, most of the resource files were still located inside
'media' directories holding all the resource files referenced by RST
pages located at the same level as these directories. In the example
above, a single 'media' directory would hold all the resource files
referenced by both `doc1.rst` and `doc2.rst`. Doing so prevented us from
figuring out easily which resource file was referenced by which RST page
and, thus, lead to unused resource files piling up in the repository. It
also made it more complicated to define codeowners regex rules because a
team could not simply be assigned to `/some_page.*` but needed to be
assigned to both `/some_page\.rst` and to the location of 'media'.
In order to help new content writers figure out the guideline when
taking examples from other RST pages, this commit retroactively applies
the guideline to existing resource files and 'media' directories. The
left-over resource files that are not referenced by any RST page are
removed.

When searching for a string that can be found in a TOC page's content,
that page is listed in the search results. This is not a wanted behavior
because TOC pages without the 'show-content' metadata directive are not
supposed to be accessible.
This commit adds a 'nosearch' metadata directive to all TOC pages
without a 'show-content' metadata directive, hence removing them from
search results.

This commit is part of a larger work to improve the documentation's
structure. The toctree structure used to add levels to create categories
and make the structure visually more understandable.
With the new version of the documentation, plenty of these categories
are now redundant.
This commit:
- removes the main "settings" section
- move its content to general/odoo_basics
- moves "general/mobile" content to "general"
- moves the content of the doc "developer_mode/activate" to "general"
- it replaces the references to that doc with `:ref:` directives
rather than `:doc:` directives
- it is worth noting that it also fixes plenty of links that
previously referred to "developer_mode" (the category) rather than
"developer_mode/activate" (the document)

Prior to this commit, the Odoo documentation was mainly split between
two repositories: odoo/odoo/doc and odoo/documentation-user. Some bits
of documentation were also hosted elsewhere (e.g., wiki, upgrade, ...).
This was causing several problems among which:
- The theme, config, Makefile, and similar technical resources had to
be duplicated. This resulted in inconsistent layout, features, and
build environments from one documentation to another.
- Some pages did not fit either documentation as they were relevant
for both users and developers. Some were relevant to neither of the
two (e.g., DB management).
- Cross-doc references had to be absolute links and they broke often.
- Merging large image files in the developer documentation would bloat
the odoo/odoo repository. Some contributions had to be lightened to
avoid merging too many images (e.g., Odoo development tutorials).
- Long-time contributors to the user documentation were chilly about
going through the merging process of the developer documentation
because of the runbot, mergebot, `odoo-dev` repository, etc.
- Some contributors would look for the developer documentation in the
`odoo/documentation-user` repository.
- Community issues about the user documentation were submitted on the
`odoo/odoo` repository and vice-versa.
Merging all documentations in one repository will allow us to have one
place, one theme, one work process, and one set of tools (build
environment, ...) for all of the Odoo docs.
As this is a good opportunity to revamp the layout of the documentation,
a brand new theme replaces the old one. It features a new way to
navigate the documentation, centered on the idea of always letting the
reader know what is the context (enclosing section, child pages, page
structure ...) of the page they are reading. The previous theme would
quickly confuse readers as they navigated the documentation and followed
cross-application links.
The chance is also taken to get rid of all the technical dangling parts,
performance issues, and left-overs. Except for some page-specific JS
scripts, the Odoo theme Sphinx extension is re-written from scratch
based on the latest Sphinx release to benefit from the improvements and
ease future contributions.
