Documentation update This patch contains several changes to the documentation which were brought about by, initially, removing the webapi/v1 page and replacing it with a link to the /api-ref/ page. As I did that, I saw that our front page (index.html) needed to be updated as well, and decided that the front page needed to actually be completely rerwitten -- while preserving all the links. Some of the TOC links from the front page were malformed because subpages included more than one H1 heading, so I had to make small changes in the api-audit-support and code-contribution-guide and dev-quickstart pages, in order for the front page to render properly. As I corrected the headings on dev-quickstart, I realized the page was not comprehensively organized, and so decided to reorganize the sections and make it easier to navigate. Here is a bullet-point summary of this change: * Major changes to content and organization of index page * Moved the version history from webapi/v1 to dev/webapi-version-history * Added API conceptual guide at dev/webapi * Replaced webapi/v1 with a link to dev/webapi, in case anyone bookmarked it * Removed doc references to webapi/v1 * Merged the pages dev/contributing and dev/code-contribution-guide * Removed duplicate H1 headers in deploy/api-audit-support * Reorganized and renamed section headers in dev/dev-quickstart, and made some substantive corrections and changes as well * Updated wording at the top of the index and deploy/user-guide pages.

The Bare Metal service manages hardware through both common (eg. PXE and IPMI)
and vendor-specific remote management protocols. It provides the cloud operator
with a unified interface to a heterogeneous fleet of servers while also
providing the Compute service with an interface that allows physical servers to
be managed as though they were virtual machines.
