David Rosa 87a2831b83 docs: Split maintain-secure-upgrade into dedicated docs.
* Moves "Management commands" to a top-level section.
* Moves "Scalability" as a subsection at the bottom of "Requirements".
* Moves "Monitoring" as a subsections at the bottom of "Troubleshooting".
* Replaces "API and your Zulip URL" with a link to REST API docs.  This
  documentation text has been irrelevant for some time.
* Removes maintain-secure-upgrade from the TOC but the file remains to
  avoid breaking old links from release blog posts and emails.

David Rosa bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.

Useful ref: https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/templating.html

Fixes #13056.

Tim Abbott e6340c6e54 docs: Make production unreleased documentation notices more visible.
Previously, Google might take you to /latest rather than /stable, and
you might get information about the next release, not the current one.

Fixes #13056.

Hemanth V. Alluri dac068df31 production: Finish adding production support for Zulip on Debian Buster.
This commit finishes adding end-to-end support for the install script
on Debian Buster (making it production ready). Some support for this
was already added in prior commits such as
99414e2d96.

We plan to revert the postgres hunks of this once we've built
tsearch_extras for our packagecloud archive.

Fixes #9828.

Tim Abbott abc7a00d35 Revert "docs: Update .html links to .md."
This doesn't work without the CommonMark upgrade.

This reverts commit c87893feea.

Samuel Searles-Bryant c87893feea docs: Update .html links to .md.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as
to `.md` files to point to the corresponding `.html` files, so this
migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.

This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.

Fixes: #11087.

but not everyone has.

Tim Abbott df436a55b4 scripts: Recommend apt update after enabling universe.
One needs to manually do an apt update after add-apt-repository, or it
won't actually work.

Greg Price e022b9e7ea install docs: Cut SSL cert from requirements summary.
The summary already has a qualifier that basically says it shouldn't
matter for most people -- making it simultaneously the most
complicated bullet there, and among the least likely to matter.

And in fact, this requirement shouldn't matter for *anyone* when first
experimenting with Zulip.  If certbot won't work in a given admin's
environment, and the available ways to get a cert aren't convenient,
they can always let the installer generate a self-signed cert to get
going, and circle back to the issue later.

So, make that option clear in the main requirements text, and then
just cut the whole bullet from the summary.

Greg Price d99ec6426d install docs: Move requirements tl;dr to requirements doc.
This further reduces the wall of text on the install instructions.
Simultaneously it lightens up the pressure on this summary to be quite
so terse; expand a couple of items into multiple bullets (yet with
fewer words!) for greater readability.

David Rosa Tamsen 7072fa5b37 docs: Reorganize developer docs to improve navigation.
This commit helps reduce clutter on the navigation sidebar.
Creates new directories and moves relevant files into them.
Modifies index.rst, symlinks, and image paths accordingly.

This commit also enables expandable/collapsible navigation items,
renames files in docs/development and docs/production,
modifies /tools/test-documentation so that it overrides a theme setting,
Also updates links to other docs, file paths in the codebase that point
to developer documents, and files that should be excluded from lint tests.

Note that this commit does not update direct links to
zulip.readthedocs.io in the codebase; those will be resolved in an
upcoming follow-up commit (it'll be easier to verify all the links
once this is merged and ReadTheDocs is updated).

Fixes #5265.
