docs: better docs, mv doxygen to sphinx

This patch refactors the VPP sphinx docs
in order to make it easier to consume
for external readers as well as VPP developers.

It also makes sphinx the single source
of documentation, which simplifies maintenance
and operation.

Most important updates are:

- reformat the existing documentation as rst
- split RELEASE.md and move it into separate rst files
- remove section 'events'
- remove section 'archive'
- remove section 'related projects'
- remove section 'feature by release'
- remove section 'Various links'
- make (Configuration reference, CLI docs,
  developer docs) top level items in the list
- move 'Use Cases' as part of 'About VPP'
- move 'Troubleshooting' as part of 'Getting Started'
- move test framework docs into 'Developer Documentation'
- add a 'Contributing' section for gerrit,
  docs and other contributer related infos
- deprecate doxygen and test-docs targets
- redirect the "make doxygen" target to "make docs"

Type: refactor

-Memory traces
-=============
-
-VPP supports memory traces to help debug (suspected) memory leaks. Each
-allocation/deallocation is instrumented so that the number of allocations and
-current global allocated size is maintained for each unique allocation stack
-trace.
-
-Looking at a memory trace can help diagnose where memory is (over-)used, and
-comparing memory traces at different point in time can help diagnose if and
-where memory leaks happen.
-
-To enable memory traces on main-heap:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ vppctl memory-trace on main-heap
-
-To dump memory traces for analysis:
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    $ vppctl show memory-trace on main-heap

-libc memory traces
-==================
-
-Internal VPP memory allocations rely on VPP main-heap, however when using
-external libraries, esp. in plugins (eg. OpenSSL library used by the IKEv2
-plugin), those external libraries usually manages memory using the standard
-libc malloc()/free()/... calls. This, in turn, makes use of the default
-libc heap.
-
-VPP has no knowledge of this heap and tools such as memory traces cannot be
-used.
-
-In order to enable the use of standard VPP debugging tools, this library
-replaces standard libc memory management calls with version using VPP
-main-heap.
-
-To use it, you need to use the `LD_PRELOAD` mechanism, eg.
-
-.. code-block:: console
-
-    ~# LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvppmem_preload.so /usr/bin/vpp -c /etc/vpp/startup.conf
-
-You can then use tools such as memory traces as usual.
