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.

We now use the odoo/tutorials to make the technical onboarding.
- Change the current documentation accordingly.
- Add a section for employees only so that they use odoo-dev/tutorials
as shared fork. It's closer to our way to work so we think it's better
to make them use to it as fast as possible.
- Add some explanations about runbot.
`odoo/technical-training-sandbox` will no longer be used and can be considered deprecated.

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`.

It has been decided to remove the possibility for our users to create
their own IAP services.
This decision was motivated by the fact that, in the 5 years of
existence of IAP, very few non-Odoo services have been created and
actively used by our customers.

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.

it isn't mentioned and the default unit is shown in mebibytes, causing

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.

I removed the dot notation in the "_name" variable for the example
model. AKA, "test.model" is now named "test_model".
Dot notation implies a data structure relationship between a <model> and
it's parent (or class etc) <test> (like test.model() or Test.model).
There is no relationship like this between a <test> and <model> - it's
just one thing: a <test model>.
The seeming "benefit" of the ORM translating dots to underscores doesn't
justify this naming convention. Yes, I know it's a string, but still,
this seems confusing for newbies and adds unnecessary complexity (why
name the same thing differently in different places?)

In chapter 13 the `property_ids` field is defined as the inverse of a
`user_id` field. But in chapter 8 when the salesperson field is added,
no such name is given to it.
This commit adapts the description to reference the general concept of
the field used to link to the salesperson instead of an actual field
identifier.
