Rearrange docs for gh-pages Github pages allows the documentation to be in the master branch in a 'docs' directory to be rendered as the main site (mcuboot.com). Rename this directory, and pull in the documentation files from the old gh-pages branch. The main index.md page does not link to the rest of the docs yet, and that change can be made in a future patch. Signed-off-by: David Brown <david.brown@linaro.org>

MCUboot works with both the Apache Mynewt, and Zephyr operating systems, but
more ports are planned in the future. RIOT is currently supported as a boot
target with a complete port planned.
