The main goal here was to get the subsections to show in the TOC as they do
for all the other documents. Also call out the DCO in the section title
since it's important.

Put like documents together, with the essential ones at the top, and split

The admin guide is a good start, but it's time to turn it into something
better than an unordered blob of files. This is a first step in that
direction. The TOC has been split up and annotated, the guides have been
reordered, and minor tweaks have been applied to a few of them.
One consequence of splitting up the TOC is that we don't really want to use
:numbered: anymore, since the count resets every time and there doesn't
seem to be a way to change that. Eventually we probably want to group the
documents into sub-books, at which point we can go back to a single TOC,
but it's probably early to do that.

This will be the initial landing point for readers, so give them a bit of
introductory material. Also split the TOC into area-specific chunks to
make the whole thing a bit more approachable.

Merge Mauro's massive patch series creating the process and admin-guide
books. I think there's a lot of stuff to clean up here, but there's no
point in holding things up for that.
Mauro sez:
This patch series continues the efforts of converting the Linux Kernel
documentation to Sphinx.
It contains text to ReST conversion of several files under Documentation,
and a few ones under the main dir (README, REPORTING-BUGS).
All patches on this series can be found on my development tree:
https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/experimental.git/log/?h=lkml-books-v2
The Kernel docs html output after this series can be seen at:
https://mchehab.fedorapeople.org/kernel_docs/

Those files got moved to Documentation/process, but as they're very
well known files, add pointers to their new locations.
PS.: I opted to not merge this patch with the previous one
in order to make the diff of the previous one more consistent,
as it will show only renames.

Probably, unicode is something that we might remove from the
docs, as all modern systems support it. Yet, this chapter
is fun, as it mentions support for the Klington fictional
charset ;)
On the other hand, I bet all other OS user manuals
explicit mention unicode support.
So, convert it to ReST and include it at the user's book.
