Jay S. Bryant 85f97d86d4 [DOC FIX] Create missing index pages
There was a mistake in the documentation migration.  The
landing pages in the admin and configuration sections should
have been moved to index.html.  That step didn't happen which
is causing it to appear that that content is missing from
the main OpenStack docs website.

This patch updates our main index page and moves the existing
landing pages to index.rst.

===========================================
Cinder, the OpenStack Block Storage Service
===========================================
Cinder is an OpenStack project to provide "block storage as a service".
* **Component based architecture**: Quickly add new behaviors
* **Highly available**: Scale to very serious workloads
* **Fault-Tolerant**: Isolated processes avoid cascading failures
* **Recoverable**: Failures should be easy to diagnose, debug, and rectify
* **Open Standards**: Be a reference implementation for a community-driven api
This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source
tree. Additional draft and project documentation on Cinder and other components of OpenStack can
be found on the `OpenStack wiki`_. Cloud administrators, refer to `docs.openstack.org`_.
