Damien Bouvy 60ab9a5634 [IMP] db_management: rework section for future content
The "database management" section was just a big fourre-tout.

This commit splits a new "Practical Info" section from the
"Applications" section and split the db management page in
3 sub-pages that will be soon extended.

Duplicating a database
======================
.. note:: Database duplication, renaming, custom DNS, etc. is not available
to free customers of our Online platform.
Access the `database management page <https://www.odoo.com/my/databases>`__
(you will have to sign in). Next, make sure you are connected as the
administrator of the database you want to duplicate. After that, click
on the **Manage Your Databases** button.

In the line of the database you want to duplicate, you will have a few
buttons. To duplicate your database, just click **Duplicate**. You will
have to give a name to your duplicate, then click **Duplicate Database**.

.. danger:: A duplicated database has the same behaviour as a real one:
* Emails are sent
* Payments are processed (in the e-commerce, for example)
* Delivery orders (shipping providers) are sent
* Etc.
It is **strongly** advised to test behaviour using sample
customers/products (with a `disposable e-mail <http://www.mailinator.com>`__
address, for example)
After a few seconds, you will be logged in your duplicated database.
Notice that the url uses the name you chose for your duplicated
database.
.. note :: Duplicate databases expire automatically after 15 days.
