The main change is the elimination of the bootstrapper, a design flaw
/ misfeature.
Update the documentation to be compatible with the 0.6.x releases as
well. This has to be done atomically, as there were incompatible
changes. Make use of the versionchanged and versionadded directives
to begin keeping track of how these APIs are evolving.
(Note that west 0.6.0 will remain compatible with the extension
commands in Zephyr v1.14 LTS as long as that is still alive. This
change is targeted towards Zephyr 2.0 users.)
This requires a bump in the shippable container and allows us to
simplify the west_commands test procedure.

Now that the runners package no longer depends on west, we can move
the documentation for it from the orphan west-apis.rst page to the
build-flash-debug.rst page that documents the west extension commands
which use that package.
(This is a more logical place for this information, but it was
previously not possible to put it there since we must be able to build
the documentation on a system without west installed, excepting
content in west-apis.rst. Removing the dependency means the runners
automodule directive can safely appear in build-flash-debug.rst.)

The current order makes no sense. Move it earlier in the order, so the
catch-all page appears last.

Create a new dedicated section for west installation that details
some of the finer aspects of the process and steps involved.

Add a new "boards" command that is able to list all the boards in the
upstream tree. There is currently no support for out-of-tree boards.
The command executes cmake to use the built-in CMake script,
boards.cmake, to list the boards, and then stores the information
retrieved and allows the user to present it in a user-definable format.

Add a missing reference to how west is used to set ZEPHYR_MODULES in
without-west.rst, augmenting the application development guide a bit
to include this in the list of important variables, cleaning that up a
bit while we are here and adding some more west details.
Add a big fat warning in the getting started guide that using Zephyr
without west is not for the faint of heart.

- add glossary terms for important concepts we have to explain often,
like "west installation"
- add autodoc directives for pulling in west API docs
- add missing documentation for built-in features like west's
configuration, extension commands, etc.
- add missing documentation for "west sign" extension
- describe the manifest in a self-contained way rather than linking to
the relevant pykwalify schema, also adding a missing reference to
"west manifest" in the miscellaneous multi-repo commands list
- move various details regarding history and motivation to why.rst
among other changes to repo-tool.rst, leaving it closer to a "tell
me what I really need to know" style overview
- update planned features

Document the `west build` command in the section corresponding to the
west commands that deal with the CMake cache, which is now named
"Building, flashing and debugging" for consistency.

Move guides and APIs into separate directories and cleanup naming
introducing index files rather than named section files.
