Cleanup the manage-volumes admin doc

This was originaly copied over from "compute-manage-volumes.rst"
doc in the openstack-manuals repo but it's clearly mostly talking
about managing volumes on the Cinder side, not how they related
to compute server instances. Furthermore, Cinder already has a much
more detailed CLI guide on managing volumes, so this change removes
the content that's not specific to Nova and just links to the Cinder
docs.
