Reflect changes in the APIs made since 0.6.0. These will also need to
be added to the release notes.
Some automatic directives weren't generating the desired output, so
either do it by hand or let new 0.7.0 docstrings supply the information.
Try to better group the content into sections.

West v0.6.1 has been released. The main feature is that "west update"
now avoids communicating with the network by default when project
revisions have already been fetched.
This allows for offline operation and significantly speeds up the
command (it's 10 times faster on my machine and home network).
There are other miscellaneous changes as well; document them also.

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.)

- 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

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