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.
Since other docs were moved away from the section "basics" with previous
commits, this category is renamed "users settings"
This commit:
- renames "basics" into "users settings"
- moves the content from "odoo_basics/users" to "users"
- it moves the content about "access rights" to a child doc

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.
