In addition, this commit extracts the git guidelines from the coding
guidelines. This helps link the git guidelines and unclutter the coding
guidelines, which should focus on only the programming languages.

In chapter 14 there was a line pointing to how to deduce a default journal for an `account.move` record.
This is no longer needed as the journal is automatically deduced using the `move_type`. Also, the link
point to an outdated line of code that causes an error.

This tutorial was already outdated in 13.0 (but
supposedly working).
In 14.0+, a lot of changes happened in website logic,
especially for 'website option definitions', breaking
the existing theme tutorial.
Considering the fact that a new tutorial is being made,
and that fixing the whole existing tutorial would be
a big work, it will be kept, but hidden as 'most things
being said still make sense'.

It is hard to find and learn about RPC in Odoo, users hardly know about
JSON-RPC as the only place where we talk about it in deep down in the
*How to make a Module* tutorial.
In the commit, we isolated the tutorial about RPC in a dedicated file,
that file is better referenced thanks to cross-references in some others
places that are talking about RPC

With the renaming of the "Backend" and "Frontend" directories to "Python
framework" and "JavaScript framework", and since we may want to document
modules that mainly rely on JavaScript, it makes sense to move the
"Standard modules" one level up from under "Python framework" directly
under "Reference".

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.

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.

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.

The "View Inheritance" section is introduced by a sentence that can be
understood as "do this task then we'll be ready to go the next section"
instead of "in the next section we will see how to do this task".
