Currently when using fast-post, the manifest is updated with the given
'x-object-manifest' header on a POST. If no such header is supplied,
then the manifest will change to a regular object.
This is not currently true when using post-as-copy.
This patch changes the DLO POST using post-as-copy behavior to match
that of using fast-post. It was also documented that
'x-object-manifest' must be provided on a POST to a manifest file.

Closes-bug: 1612991
Added a link to the API reference (where headers and query
strings are documented; click the "detail" button to see).
Also added a reference to Swift section of the OpenStack end
user guide. This contains some additional details about the API.
No attempt was made to reconcile duplicate information. Instead
this patch links documents that might otherwise be overlooked.
However, I fixed text, originally in a table, that had become
garbled in a prior patch.

The doc for these sections was missing because of an rst error - the
source is there in rst file but didn't make it into the html output.
Add doc for per_diff and max_diffs in account and container doc sections.
Also, fix a bunch of other sphinx build errors and most of the warnings.

Current behavior:
* If data/body is present in manifest file PUT request, the data/body gets
saved onto disk, just like for a normal object.
* Generally, this data in manifest file is never served on a GET response.
However, when the manifest object path itself is part of prefix, GET
response would contain data present in manifest file as well.
* The query param multipart-manifest=get meant to retrieve SLO manifest
also works in case of DLO manifest. Hence a COPY request with the
multipart-manifest=get query param would actually copy DLO manifest.
How things should have been:
* The DLO manifest object is supposed to have no content and only have
X-Object-Manifest metadata header.
* Query param multipart-manifest=get is SLO specific and shouldn't have
any role in DLO.
This change intends to only document current behaviour and not change it,
assuming there are users who have previously saved some content in DLO
manifest file and/or have been using multipart-manifest=get to fetch
and/or COPY the DLO manifest file with it's content.

After discussion https://review.openstack.org/#/c/129384/ moving
to the doc directory in swift repo.
This lets us eliminate the object-api repo along with all the <service>-
api repos and move content to audience-centric locations.
