To reduce the technical debt, we remove easy flows from the documentation.
For dropshipping, it is only a matter of enabling one app setting and ticking
dropship on a product. In addition, dropshipping doesn't really fit under purchase
as it's a way to sell products - that is why it is explained on Odoo Learn under
the Sales app.
The reporting feature needed to be updated for V14 (new features,
new screenshots). In addition, more in-depth explanations were provided
as using the reporting functionality isn't straightforward.
3-way matching and bill control are closely related and were very shorts docs,
so in order to make more sense, both docs were merged. Both also had to be updated
for v14 since Odoo behaviour changed: when the bill control policy is set to
'on received quantities' you cannot create a bill anymore unless you have received
at least some products. Previously, you could create a bill for "0" and the "should
be paid' status was set to 'no'. Info about the "Bill status" field was also added
as it is also closely related.
Both blanket orders and calls for tenders shared a good chunk of information
(namely, enabling the feature and purchase agreements types configuration), and,
at the same time, aren't complex enough feature to have their own page, so this
commit merged-s both pages under a new folder "manage deals" where another commit
will add 3-way matching later on. At the same time, some of the content had to be
updated for v14 and it was necessary to provide slightly more in-depth information
across the board.
With the introduction of V14, reordering rules went through some change, such
as the replenishment view. In addition, due to the importance of this feature,
a much more in-depth presentation of all the options was deemed necessary.
Key points were also not mentioned, such as: which vendor will be
selected, what are quantities on the product's vendor, etc.
The units of measure page needed an update to: match v14 visually (v12
screenshots), update the flow (the ratio works differently now and is
critical to understand), remove unnecessary information (e.g. 'install the
sales and purchase apps'), clarify some parts and correct typos

Most of the docs removed were easy/basic and explained under Odoo Learn.
As many docs were removed, it was necessary to restructre and rename the docs that I kept.
Kept docs will be updated next.

*: accounting, inventory, purchase
As these buttons points to demo.odoo.com, it is outdated very quickly
and leads to weird results were a button on the 10.0 documentation
points to demo.odoo.com that runs 13.0 or no longer exists.
- Removed the doc version and absolute path from all user doc redirections.
- Made developer doc redirections use 13.0 instead of online, master or earlier version string.
- Fixed outdated links.
- Enforced the use of :doc:, :ref: and :download: directives for redirections.
- Replaced google drive/docs links by doc redirections.
* Add chapter documenting the use of Blanket Order type Purchase Agreements
* Clarify the proper usage and behavior of dates for Purchase Tender type Purchase Agreements
