This commit restructures the contributing/documentation page to re-use
content introduced with the contributing/development page and to
display the two ways to contribute (github vs git) in content tabs
rather than sections.
The guide is simplified and updated to delegate long explanations to
other pages or websites, remove useless images and focus on getting
users ready to contribute.

This commit replaces hard-coded occurrences of the version and of the
last, current and next releases' version with placeholders interpolated
at build time to avoid manually updating these after each freeze.

As the `apt-key` command will is deprecated and will be removed in the
next Debian release, it's time to update the documentation.

When installing requirements, the psycopg requirement can fail
because the $PATH does not contain the postgresql tools installed with
the .app.
This commit provides instructions to avoid this issue.

In an attempt to help new developers install Odoo with a
straightforward procedure, Chapter 2 of the "Getting started" tutorial
included copy-pastes of parts of the "Installing Odoo" page. This proved
to be inefficient because it required maintaining documentation on the
installation procedure in several places and misled the readers by
suggesting installing the Python requirements *after* installing
PostgreSQL.
With this commit, the page on Chapter 2 is refreshed to be clearer to
the readers and redirect them to the "Installing Odoo" page when
necessary.

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.

All examples on the page suggest calling the CLI with "odoo-bin" while
it is recommended to call it with "odoo" when Odoo was installed from a
distribution package. It also failed to mention the location of
"odoo-bin" relative to the source files.
The chance is also taken to rename the somewhat unclear page title to
something more clear and generic.

In many places in the docs, we need to document several flows that
differ only by a few details. For example, the steps to install Odoo
from the sources are almost identical for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS.
In other places, we'd want to suggest a command in different
environments or programming languages, etc.
This commit thus adds an extension for content tabs (tabs within the
content) to help reduce content repetition in the documentation. As a
proof of concept, the "Packaged installers" and "Source install"
sections of the "Installing Odoo" page are reworked to present their
content within tabs whenever it helps clarify the instructions.
A new python dependency is added as of this commit: `sphinx-tabs`

This commit changes the way that Odoo python dependencies should be
installed.
Before this commit, the described way to install Odoo dependencies was
by using the `pip` utility.
Now, we explicitly recommend to use a Debian based system and install
Odoo dependencies from their packaging tool.
The main reasons are:
* Odoo productions instances are, most of the time, run on Debian based
systems with those package already installed
* That way, a developer cannot mistakenly use a feature from a
dependency that does not exists on those production environments
* Avoid mixes of python packages on the developer/user 's system

As of commit https://github.com/odoo/odoo/commit/794677fb Python 3.7 is
the minimum required version for Python when running Odoo 15.0.
This also applies to building the version 15.0 of the documentation.
