The documentation contains plenty of notes and warnings. Enable
special rendering of these blocks by converting the note prefix
into a .. note:: annotation.

Several code blocks do not specify a language for syntax
highlighting. This results in Sphinx using a default highlighter
which is Python.

This patch adds the correct language to each code block that doesn't
already specify it.

These are no longer needed as there will always be a table of contents
rendered to the left of every page.

Some of these lists can be quite long and, when opening a page, the
reader sees nothing but a huge list of contents! After this patch,
the document contents are front-and-centre and the contents are
nicely rendered in the sidebar without duplication.

This patch attempts to standardise the document titles as well as
adding titles to documents that were missing one. The aim is to
remove needless references to "TF-A" or "Trusted Firmware" in the
title of every document and to make sure that the title matches
with the document content.

This change creates the following directories under docs/
in order to provide a grouping for the content:

- components
- design
- getting_started
- perf
- process

In each of these directories an index.rst file is created
and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the
groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the
top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index
structure.

Without this patch it is possible to build the documents
correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because
there is no overall hierarchy.

Sections 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 contained example code blocks that were not
being formatted properly due to missing newlines.

not intended) the desired ordering, grouping and variants (<> or "").

This patch attempts to make the guidelines clearer by reordering
the sections and grouping similar topics.

Adds a link from user-guide.rst to coding-guidelines.rst and merges
the information about using checkpatch from both files into the user

This content has been imported and adapted from the TF GitHub wiki
article 'ARM-Trusted-Firmware-Coding-Guidelines'.

The aim is to increase the visibility of the coding guidelines by
including them as part of the documentation that is within the TF
repository.

Additionally, the documentation can then be linked to by other
documents in the docs/ directory without worrying about broken links
to, for example, the external wiki.
