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

-Using VPP as a Home Gateway
-===========================
-
-Vpp running on a small system (with appropriate NICs) makes a fine
-home gateway. The resulting system performs far in excess of
-requirements: a debug image runs at a vector size of \~1.2 terminating
-a 150-mbit down / 10-mbit up cable modem connection.
-
-At a minimum, install sshd and the isc-dhcp-server. If you prefer, you
-can use dnsmasq.
-
-System configuration files
---------------------------
-
-/etc/vpp/startup.conf:
-
-    unix {
-      nodaemon
-      log /var/log/vpp/vpp.log
-      full-coredump
-      cli-listen /run/vpp/cli.sock
-      startup-config /setup.gate
-      poll-sleep-usec 100
-      gid vpp
-    }
-    api-segment {
-      gid vpp
-    }
-    dpdk {
-         dev 0000:03:00.0
-         dev 0000:14:00.0
-         etc.
-     }
-
-     plugins {
-       ## Disable all plugins, selectively enable specific plugins
-           ## YMMV, you may wish to enable other plugins (acl, etc.)
-       plugin default { disable }
-       plugin dpdk_plugin.so { enable }
-       plugin nat_plugin.so { enable }
-           ## if you plan to use the time-based MAC filter
-       plugin mactime_plugin.so { enable }
-     }
-
-/etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf:
-
-    subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
-      range 192.168.1.10 192.168.1.99;
-      option routers 192.168.1.1;
-      option domain-name-servers 8.8.8.8;
-    }
-
-If you decide to enable the vpp dns name resolver, substitute
-192.168.1.2 for 8.8.8.8 in the dhcp server configuration.
-
-/etc/default/isc-dhcp-server:
-
-    # On which interfaces should the DHCP server (dhcpd) serve DHCP requests?
-    # Separate multiple interfaces with spaces, e.g. "eth0 eth1".
-    INTERFACESv4="lstack"
-    INTERFACESv6=""
-
-/etc/ssh/sshd\_config:
-
-    # What ports, IPs and protocols we listen for
-    Port <REDACTED-high-number-port>
-    # Change to no to disable tunnelled clear text passwords
-    PasswordAuthentication no
-
-For your own comfort and safety, do NOT allow password authentication
-and do not answer ssh requests on port 22. Experience shows several hack
-attempts per hour on port 22, but none (ever) on random high-number
-ports.
-
-Systemd configuration
----------------------
-
-In a typical home-gateway use-case, vpp owns the one-and-only WAN link
-with a prayer of reaching the public internet. Simple things like
-updating distro software requires use of the \"lstack\" interface
-created above, and configuring a plausible upstream DNS name resolver.
-
-Configure /etc/systemd/resolved.conf as follows.
-
-/etc/systemd/resolved.conf:
-
-    [Resolve]
-    DNS=8.8.8.8
-    #FallbackDNS=
-    #Domains=
-    #LLMNR=no
-    #MulticastDNS=no
-    #DNSSEC=no
-    #Cache=yes
-    #DNSStubListener=yes
-
-Netplan configuration
----------------------
-
-If you want to configure a static IP address on one of your home-gateway
-Ethernet ports on Ubuntu 18.04, you\'ll need to configure netplan.
-Netplan is relatively new. It and the network manager GUI and can be
-cranky. In the configuration shown below,
-s/enp4s0/\<your-interface\>/\...
-
-/etc/netplan-01-netcfg.yaml:
-
-    # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
-    # For more information, see netplan(5).
-    network:
-      version: 2
-      renderer: networkd
-      ethernets:
-        enp4s0:
-          dhcp4: no
-          addresses: [192.168.2.254/24]
-          gateway4: 192.168.2.100
-          nameservers:
-            search: [my.local]
-            addresses: [8.8.8.8]
-
-/etc/systemd/network-10.enp4s0.network:
-
-    [Match]
-    Name=enp4s0
-
-    [Link]
-    RequiredForOnline=no
-
-    [Network]
-    ConfigureWithoutCarrier=true
-    Address=192.168.2.254/24
-
-Note that we\'ve picked an IP address for the home gateway which is on
-an independent unrouteable subnet. This is handy for installing (and
-possibly reverting) new vpp software.

-Installing new vpp software
----------------------------
-
-If you\'re **sure** that a given set of vpp Debian packages will install
-and work properly, you can install them while logged into the gateway
-via the lstack / nat path. This procedure is a bit like standing on a
-rug and yanking it. If all goes well, a perfect back-flip occurs. If
-not, you may wish that you\'d configured a static IP address on a
-reserved Ethernet interface as described above.
-
-Installing a new vpp image via ssh to 192.168.1.2:
-
-    # nohup dpkg -i *.deb >/dev/null 2>&1 &
-
-Within a few seconds, the inbound ssh connection SHOULD begin to respond
-again. If it does not, you\'ll have to debug the issue(s).
-
-Reasonably Robust Remote Software Installation
-----------------------------------------------
-
-Here are a couple of scripts which yield a reasonably robust software
-installation scheme.
-
-### Build-host script
-
-    #!/bin/bash
-
-    buildroot=/scratch/vpp-workspace/build-root
-    if [ $1x = "testx" ] ; then
-        subdir="test"
-        ipaddr="192.168.2.48"
-    elif [ $1x = "foox" ] ; then
-        subdir="foo"
-        ipaddr="foo.some.net"
-    elif [ $1x = "barx" ] ; then
-        subdir="bar"
-        ipaddr="bar.some.net"
-    else
-        subdir="test"
-        ipaddr="192.168.2.48"
-    fi
-
-    echo Save current software...
-    ssh -p 22432 $ipaddr "rm -rf /gate_debians.prev"
-    ssh -p 22432 $ipaddr "mv /gate_debians /gate_debians.prev"
-    ssh -p 22432 $ipaddr "mkdir /gate_debians"
-    echo Copy new software to the gateway...
-    scp -P 22432 $buildroot/*.deb $ipaddr:/gate_debians
-    echo Install new software...
-    ssh -p 22432 $ipaddr "nohup /usr/local/bin/vpp-swupdate > /dev/null 2>&1 &"
-
-    for i in 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
-    do
-        echo Wait for $i seconds...
-        sleep 1
-    done
-
-    echo Try to access the device...
-
-    ssh -p 22432 -o ConnectTimeout=10 $ipaddr "tail -20 /var/log/syslog | grep Ping"
-    if [ $? == 0 ] ; then
-        echo Access test OK...
-    else
-        echo Access failed, wait for configuration restoration...
-        for i in 25 24 23 22 21 20 19 18 17 16 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1
-        do
-            echo Wait for $i seconds...
-            sleep 1
-        done
-        echo Retry access test
-        ssh -p 22432 -o ConnectTimeout=10 $ipaddr "tail -20 /var/log/syslog | grep Ping"
-        if [ $? == 0 ] ; then
-            echo Access test OK, check syslog on the device
-            exit 1
-        else
-            echo Access test still fails, manual intervention required.
-            exit 2
-        fi
-    fi
-
-    exit 0
-
-### Target script
-
-    #!/bin/bash
-
-    logger "About to update vpp software..."
-    cd /gate_debians
-    service vpp stop
-    sudo dpkg -i *.deb >/dev/null 2>&1 &
-    sleep 20
-    logger "Ping connectivity test..."
-    for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
-    do
-        ping -4 -c 1 yahoo.com
-        if [ $? == 0 ] ; then
-            logger "Ping test OK..."
-            exit 0
-        fi
-    done
-
-    logger "Ping test NOT OK, restore old software..."
-    rm -rf /gate_debians
-    mv /gate_debians.prev /gate_debians
-    cd /gate_debians
-    nohup sudo dpkg -i *.deb >/dev/null 2>&1 &
-    sleep 20
-    logger "Repeat connectivity test..."
-    for i in 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
-    do
-        ping -4 -c 1 yahoo.com
-        if [ $? == 0 ] ; then
-            logger "Ping test OK after restoring old software..."
-            exit 0
-        fi
-    done
-
-    logger "Ping test FAIL after restoring software, manual intervention required"
-    exit 2
-
-Note that the target script **requires** that the userid which invokes
-it will manage to "sudo dpkg ..." without further authentication. If
-you're uncomfortable with the security implications of that
-requirement, you'll need to solve the problem a different
-way. Strongly suggest configuring sshd as described above to minimize
-risk.
-
-
-Testing new software
---------------------
-
-If you frequently test new home gateway software, it may be handy to set
-up a test gateway behind your production gateway. This testing
-methodology reduces complaints from family members, to name one benefit.
-
-Change the inside network (dhcp) subnet from 192.168.1.0/24 to
-192.168.3.0/24, change the (dhcp) advertised router to 192.168.3.1,
-reconfigure the vpp tap interface addresses onto the 192.168.3.0/24
-subnet, and you should be all set.
-
-This scenario nats traffic twice: first, from the 192.168.3.0/24 network
-onto the 192.168.1.0/24 network. Next, from the 192.168.1.0/24 network
-onto the public internet.
-
-Patches
--------
-
-You\'ll want this addition to src/vpp/vnet/main.c to add the \"service
-restart isc-dhcp-server" and \"service restart vpp\" commands:
-
-    #include <sys/types.h>

-
-Using the time-based mac filter plugin
---------------------------------------
-
-If you need to restrict network access for certain devices to specific
-daily time ranges, configure the \"mactime\" plugin. Add it to the list
-of enabled plugins in /etc/vpp/startup.conf, then enable the feature on
-the NAT \"inside\" interfaces:
-
-    bin mactime_enable_disable GigabitEthernet0/14/0
-    bin mactime_enable_disable GigabitEthernet0/14/1
-    ...
-
-Create the required src-mac-address rule database. There are 4 rule
-entry types:
-
--   allow-static - pass traffic from this mac address
--   drop-static - drop traffic from this mac address
--   allow-range - pass traffic from this mac address at specific times
--   drop-range - drop traffic from this mac address at specific times
-
-Here are some examples:
-
-    bin mactime_add_del_range name alarm-system mac 00:de:ad:be:ef:00 allow-static
-    bin mactime_add_del_range name unwelcome mac 00:de:ad:be:ef:01 drop-static
-    bin mactime_add_del_range name not-during-business-hours mac <mac> drop-range Mon - Fri 7:59 - 18:01
-    bin mactime_add_del_range name monday-busines-hours mac <mac> allow-range Mon 7:59 - 18:01
