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#104947
* 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`.

We have introduced a second version of the Extract API that adds the IAP
account token to the `get_result` and `validate` routes.
There are also other changes in this commit:
- The deprecated stuff has been removed as it's been deprecated for a
while and won't be supported anymore in the future.
- The `status` table of the `get_result` route has been added as it was
missing for some reason.
- The documentation regarding the `/validate` routes have been removed
for security reasons.

We used to document the extract API according to the version of the
documentation that is being viewed, i.e. in version 14, we
documented the API version that was used in Odoo 14.
This is actually not a good idea as the extract API isn't strictly
linked to Odoo versions, it has its own versioning system.
It can also be an issue if users don't realize they're viewing an old
version of the API and start implementing customizations based on it.
This commit is an exact copy of the current `master` version of the
extract API documentation.

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.

It was confusing to label the directory for pages related to the Python
framework "Backend" as, in Odoo, the backend is the web client, and the
frontend is the portal/website. It also led to the "Standard modules"
directory to be placed within the "Backend" directory as of `saas-15.1`
to indicate that they were part of the backend too, but that was a
mistake. Indeed, most standard modules comprise JavaScript methods, and
we could want to document these in the reference at some point.

Now that a new styling for API references was added with commit 934f45c,
we can remove the extra CSS that was crafted specifically for JavaScript
API references with commit 05a0a49a. While we're at it, this commit also
applies the new styling to definition lists that were missing it, like
it was done for the page on views with commit 120ae785.

The documentation of view attributes was lacking visual structure to
help the reader figure out which attribute relates to which parent
element. Since this documentation was relying on RST block quotes to
represent the hierarchy of view attributes, we can apply the same new
styling that was added with commit 934f45cf and designed for autodoc,
and which relies on the exact same HTML structure as block quotes.

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.
