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point to an outdated line of code that causes an error.

This tutorial was already outdated in 13.0 (but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'.

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.

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.

At the point when the developer mode is introduced in the training, it is
confusing because the documentation page describes the option inside the
Settings page, but that page only appears if at least one application is
installed. (Otherwise, the Settings app shows the Users instead)
This commit adds a note so that the reader does not start looking for a
screen that cannot be reached at that point.

`web` is not used directly and is installed automatically anyway.
Having both `web` and `base` looks excessively, so coaches usually ask to delete
`base`. But more correct solution is adding `base` only. Completly skipping
dependencies is not good either -- see 76e05ccfb8
no need to fetch all branches from odoo/technical-training-sandbox
Also, ``git push`` without upstream may not work depending on git
version/configuration:
```
$ git push -u master-my_first_branch-IEL
fatal: The current branch master-my_first_branch-IEL has no upstream branch.
To push the current branch and set the remote as upstream, use
git push --set-upstream master-my_first_branch-IEL master-my_first_branch-IEL
```
The new R&D training is intended to replace the existing technical
training(s). It is organized as follow:
- A core training, with chapters to follow in order (1 - 16)
- Advanced topics, with independent chapters (A - O)
The advanced topics should be done after the core training.

Prior to this commit, the Odoo documentation was mainly split between
two repositories: odoo/odoo/doc and odoo/documentation-user. Some bits
of documentation were also hosted elsewhere (e.g., wiki, upgrade, ...).
This was causing several problems among which:
- The theme, config, Makefile, and similar technical resources had to
be duplicated. This resulted in inconsistent layout, features, and
build environments from one documentation to another.
- Some pages did not fit either documentation as they were relevant
for both users and developers. Some were relevant to neither of the
two (e.g., DB management).
- Cross-doc references had to be absolute links and they broke often.
- Merging large image files in the developer documentation would bloat
the odoo/odoo repository. Some contributions had to be lightened to
avoid merging too many images (e.g., Odoo development tutorials).
- Long-time contributors to the user documentation were chilly about
going through the merging process of the developer documentation
because of the runbot, mergebot, `odoo-dev` repository, etc.
- Some contributors would look for the developer documentation in the
`odoo/documentation-user` repository.
- Community issues about the user documentation were submitted on the
`odoo/odoo` repository and vice-versa.
Merging all documentations in one repository will allow us to have one
place, one theme, one work process, and one set of tools (build
environment, ...) for all of the Odoo docs.
As this is a good opportunity to revamp the layout of the documentation,
a brand new theme replaces the old one. It features a new way to
navigate the documentation, centered on the idea of always letting the
reader know what is the context (enclosing section, child pages, page
structure ...) of the page they are reading. The previous theme would
quickly confuse readers as they navigated the documentation and followed
cross-application links.
The chance is also taken to get rid of all the technical dangling parts,
performance issues, and left-overs. Except for some page-specific JS
scripts, the Odoo theme Sphinx extension is re-written from scratch
based on the latest Sphinx release to benefit from the improvements and
ease future contributions.
