Paul Beesley 347609510e doc: Convert internal links to RST format
Currently links between documents are using the format:

<path/to/><filename>.rst

This was required for services like GitHub because they render each
document in isolation - linking to another document is like linking
to any other file, just provide the full path.

However, with the new approach, the .rst files are only the raw
source for the documents. Once the documents have been rendered
the output is now in another format (HTML in our case) and so,
when linking to another document, the link must point to the
rendered version and not the .rst file.

The RST spec provides a few methods for linking between content.
The parent of this patch enabled the automatic creation of anchors
for document titles - we will use these anchors as the targets for
our links. Additional anchors can be added by hand if needed, on
section and sub-section titles, for example.

An example of this new format, for a document with the title
"Firmware Design" is :ref:`Firmware Design`.

One big advantage of this is that anchors are not dependent on
paths. We can then move documents around, even between directories,
without breaking any links between documents. Links will need to be
updated only if the title of a document changes.

Paul Beesley 7cb68807fb doc: Generate PlantUML diagrams automatically
Currently we have some pre-rendered versions of certain diagrams
in SVG format. These diagrams have corresponding PlantUML source
that can be rendered automatically as part of the documentation
build, removing the need for any intermediate files.

This patch adds the Sphinx "plantuml" extension, replaces
references to the pre-rendered SVG files within the documents,
and finally removes the SVG files and helper script.

New requirements for building the docs are the
"sphinxcontrib-plantuml" Python module (added to the pip
requirements.txt file) and the Graphviz package (provides the
"dot" binary) which is in the Ubuntu package repositories.

Paul Beesley 29c0252959 doc: Set correct syntax highlighting style
Several code blocks do not specify a language for syntax
highlighting. This results in Sphinx using a default highlighter
which is Python.

This patch adds the correct language to each code block that doesn't
already specify it.

Paul Beesley 57354abb20 doc: Remove per-page contents lists
These are no longer needed as there will always be a table of contents
rendered to the left of every page.

Some of these lists can be quite long and, when opening a page, the
reader sees nothing but a huge list of contents! After this patch,
the document contents are front-and-centre and the contents are
nicely rendered in the sidebar without duplication.

Paul Beesley 40d553cfde doc: Move documents into subdirectories
This change creates the following directories under docs/
in order to provide a grouping for the content:

- components
- design
- getting_started
- perf
- process

In each of these directories an index.rst file is created
and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the
groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the
top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index
structure.

Without this patch it is possible to build the documents
correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because
there is no overall hierarchy.
