[PATCH v4 0/6] Enhance documentation for new developers

[Pierrick Bouvier]

This series extends our documentation with new pages to help developers
onboarding on QEMU. It focuses on providing a big picture of QEMU (to a
modest extend).

As such, it was written to be simple, short, easy to understand, and pointing to
more details. It provides another way to dive into details instead of simply
hitting the "search" box.

The first patches enhance the existing developer section. They provide
information about b4 and git-publish, two important tools that I learnt from my
coworkers, and were not presented anywhere, and were really missing IMHO.

Then, we introduce a new Codebase page, presenting (succintly) the various parts
of QEMU, and what every folder of the codebase contains.
We then add a glossary with the most recurrent acronyms we hear in our daily
conversations on the mailing list.
Finally, we add an "How-to" page which present how to build and test qemu, and
how to contribute a patch. It's definitely a repetition of existing information,
but the goal was to have a self contained page with all the commands I run
daily personally, and that someone would be interested to have.

When reviewing, please keep in mind this is targeting someone who discovers
QEMU, and not someone who contributed to the project for several years. What is
obvious for you will not be obvious for a random young developer.

That said, please free to point if something is "false", or "really incomplete".
It can be hard to summarize in one or two sentences complex parts, but that's
the intent here.

Your feedback on content or organization is very welcome!

Thanks,
Pierrick

v2:
- removed how-to section
- integrated all suggestions from Daniel and Peter (thanks for all your 
comments)
- Note: build environment keeps mentioning windows-arm64 because we solved the
  issue with gcc_struct attribute. The related series will be merged before this
  documentation.

v3:
- added a comment about git-publish asked by Daniel.

v4:
- add suggestion from Thomas for codebase and message-id.
