Inaky Perez-Gonzalez dbe30711fd LICENSING: clarify licenses of imported / reused code
The Zephyr kernel tree has imported or reuses packages, scripts that
are not covered by the Apache LICENSE.

As in some places it is not clear (there is no LICENSE file or way to
put it there), here we list them to ensure there is proper license
acknowledgement.

This is an initial proposal--I welcome feedback on everything,
especially where to link the documentation (kind of kludgy now) and
more missed components from this initial list.

v5: Added David Kinder's feedback

v4: Fixed more typos in Makefile

v3: fixed some more typos, but still holding on to feedback on how it
can be done with SPDX files, as it is not yet all clear to me.

David B. Kinder 09cf85a94b doc: remove 1.5 doc link until after release
Link to the 1.5 version of documentation shouldn't be added
to the documentation home page until AFTER the release documents
are pushed to the site.  (I thought this would have been done when
the code freeze happened.)  Remove the 1.5 link for now and wait
until after the 1.5 docs are pushed.

Allan Stephens 83bbc7c0e5 doc: Create "Introducing Zephyr" document
Relocates the introductory material for Zephyr into a new document,
so that it can be more easily located by users. (Previously this
info couldn't be accessed from the list of documents on the left hand
side of a web page; instead, you had to click on the "Documentation"
tab at the top of the page, which is non-intuitive.)

Allan Stephens 1eea6c42f7 doc: Re-order top-level documents to improve usability
Groups top-level documents so that related documents are adjacent.
Also re-orders things so that documents for newcomers appear before
documents on more advanced topics.

The rationale behind the resulting order is described below:

Getting Started Guide
- Enables a newcomer to access & try out Zephyr by running a sample
  application using QEMU.

Supported Boards
- Enables a newcomer to try out Zephyr by running a sample application
  using actual hardware.
- Also lets newcomers know which boards are currently supported.

Zephyr Kernel Primer
Device Drivers and Device Model
Subsystems
- Describes the various components of the Zephyr kernel.
- Lets a developer know what is available when they are *designing* code.

API Documentation
- Describes the various APIs of the Zephyr kernel.
- Lets a developer know what is available when they are *writing* code.

Application Development Primer
- Provides the info needed for a developer to create a new application
  using Zephyr.

Contributing Code
- Tells a developer how to contribute code back to the Zephyr project.
- Advanced topic.

Porting Guides
- Provides guidelines for porting Zephyr to a new architecture.
- Advanced topic.

Build System User Guide
- Covers writing Kconfig options, and also contains reference guide.
- Advanced topic.

Inaky Perez-Gonzalez 32970f1382 doc: integrate about_zephyr -> index to remove warnings
Warnings about duplicate label (_about_zephyr) crept up because of the
way the about_zephyr document was included in the index. This is a
short document, makes sense to have it as part of the index.rst; it
removes clutter from the directory as well as the warning.

Restructured the API documentation and moved it from the Reference

Added a note about the search function to help users find the API they

Splitted the API docs into two files one for nanokernel and another for
the microkernel APIs.

Added table of contents for each of the API sections with a back link on
the headings to take the users back to the top of the page. Making
navigation easier and more user friendly.

Rodrigo Caballero 4f976c20d7 doc: Refactor the Quick Start Guide.
Restructured the guide to follow a basic three step process: Set up, develop,
build. All information that is independent of the OS selection was taken out of
of the OS related documents and placed in the general set up sections.

A new section, Developing Zephyr Applications, was added with links to all the
development relevant section of the documentation.

The content in local_development.rst was split between the setting_up.rst,
installation_linux.rst and installation_mac.rst files as appropriate.

This new structure provides a much better flow for developers beginning their
Zephyr develpment.

Applied all of Inaky's suggestions in the refactored content.

Minor markup fixes and language edits were also perfomed during the refactoring.

Fixed a cross-reference that was broken during the refactor.

Applied all the feedback from the first trial run.

Applied the feedback provided by David Kinder from TCS.

Allan Stephens fa2e040198 doc: Enhance usability of top-level documentation page
Regroups documents into 3 sets::

1) Documents needed when first encountering Zephyr. (Basically what
   you need to decide if you're interested in Zephyr, what it can do
   for you, and how to get the code so you can experiment with it.)

2) Documents used when developing new Zephyr software.

3) Reference documents for Zephyr. (Having these on the main page
   instead of a sub-page make sense, since the API guide and
   configuration option guide will be consulted frequently by users.)
