General documentation updates
- We now have several developer-focused docs, so create an index page for them. - Rework several docs to fit into the index structure. - Experiment with code highlighting; tweak the CSS slightly to make it slightly nicer to look at. Change-Id: I4185a18f84fa0764745ca7a3148276064a3155c6 Signed-off-by: Chris Luke <chrisy@flirble.org>

-## Examples
-
-After build, root folder will contain scripts linking binary examples with library (same name as example apps). These scripts can be executed to run example apps without installing the library. Example apps binaries can be found in _libs_ filder. To run binaries directly, make sure that libmemif library is installed.

-#### Run in container
-ligato/libmemif-sample-service image contains built and installed libmemf. To run different examples, override docker CMD to start container in bash:
-```
-# docker run -it --entrypoint=/bin/bash -i --rm --name icmp-responder --hostname icmp-responder --privileged -v "/run/vpp/:/run/vpp/" ligato/libmemif-sample-service

User can create/delete connections, set ip addresses, print connection information. [Example setup](ExampleSetup.md) contains instructions on basic connection use cases setups. Memif receive mode: interrupt. App provides functionality to disable interrupts for specified queue/s for testing purposes. Polling mode is not implemented in this example.

==============================================

## Introduction
Shared memory packet interface (memif) provides high performance packet transmit and receive between user application and Vector Packet Processing (VPP) or multiple user applications. Using libmemif, user application can create shared memory interface in master or slave mode and connect to VPP or another application using libmemif. Once the connection is established, user application can receive or transmit packets using libmemif API.
