Andreas Maier cf932be130 Overhauled the documentation 
This change is supposed to improve the documentation that currently
exists, without adding much new content.

Details:

* Reorganized the main page into a common overview section, a
  section for users of the driver, and a section for contributors,
  and a section with links for quick access.
* Separated between the `README.rst` file and the introductory text
  on the main page, because the `README.rst` file stands on its own
  when shown on the Github code page, while the introductory text
  is part of the larger documentation. As a result, removed the
  `doc/source/readme.rst` file.
* Added an empty chapter for the topology to the overview section
  of the main page, instead of referencing the readme file.
* Cleaned up headings and file names somewhat.
* Added link targets to any major headings.
* Adapted the contributions page to the project, and added links
  for the Git repo and the Gerrit review page.

About this project

This project provides a Nova virtualization driver for the PR/SM hypervisor of IBM z Systems and IBM LinuxOne machines that are in the DPM (Dynamic Partition Manager) administrative mode.

The DPM mode enables dynamic capabilities of the firmware-based PR/SM hypervisor that are usually known from software-based hypervisors, such as creation, deletion and modification of partitions (i.e. virtual machines) and virtual devices within these partitions, and dynamic assignment of these virtual devices to physical I/O adapters.

The z/VM and KVM hypervisors on z Systems and LinuxONE machines are supported by separate Nova virtualization drivers:
