Daniele Procida d9f37ac118 [5.1.x] Restructured how-to docs landing page.
Previously, this was a bare list of sub-pages, not in any discernible
order, and hard to parse.

Now the sub-pages are grouped in sections by topic. It's unlikely to be
the final word on how this material is arranged, but it's a clear
improvement on the existing arrangement and provides a good basis for
next steps.
Backport of dd0a116b93c40f9febf0e09614ad666af1191744 from main.

The documentation in this tree is in plain text files and can be viewed using
any text file viewer.

It uses `ReST`_ (reStructuredText), and the `Sphinx`_ documentation system.
This allows it to be built into other forms for easier viewing and browsing.

To create an HTML version of the docs:

* Install Sphinx (using ``python -m pip install Sphinx`` or some other method).

* In this docs/ directory, type ``make html`` (or ``make.bat html`` on
  Windows) at a shell prompt.

The documentation in ``_build/html/index.html`` can then be viewed in a web
browser.
