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.

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.

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.

Odoo is compatible with X-Sendfile (apache) and X-Accel (nginx). They
are web server extension that can be used by the web application (Odoo)
to delegate serving local files to the web server (apache/nginx). We use
those extension to stream attachments. The documentation now explains
what is X-Sendfile/X-Accel and how to configure each web server.
Along those changes, the few sentences about serving static files have
been reworded and now include various configuration examples.

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".
This can confuse the reader into thinking that some knowledge was not
acquired in the previous parts.
This commit makes it clear that the task described in the transition
sentence will be achieved in the next part.

it is recommended to call it with "odoo" when Odoo was installed from a

"odoo-bin" relative to the source files.

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`
