Add module overview documentation

[jcfr]

• Add Module Overview documentation (historically maintained on the Slicer wiki at https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Modules)
• Update Module Overview documentation adding Remote Module section (historically maintained on the Slicer wiki at https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Build_system/Remote_Module)

Similarly to the section historically called Where to start? that was available under each module type on this page, I introduced a Getting Started sub section with a link to the Extension Wizard module and existing Slicer modules.

I am wondering if this is the best place for this information. Should we instead keep that section descriptive n and only reference the extension wizard from developer_guide/extensions.html ?

LGTM 👍

I didn't read too closely, but that will be easier and the links can be checked once the docs are generated.

Always nice to see traces of the old wiki removed in favor of the sphinx documentation. Agree that we can just do a final check that the links generally work once the documentation is built. Too lazy to build and check locally :)

Worth noting that the documentation preview is generated for each pull request and may be reviewed using the following link displayed after expanding the list of checks:

Oh, nice I was looking for that; just need to "show all checks"

Links seem to work 👍

Thanks @ebrahimebrahim and @pieper for the review.

This pull request has been updated to add the documentation historically maintained on the Slicer wiki at https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Documentation/Nightly/Developers/Modules

It revisits the "Specifications", "Getting Started" and "More information" sections based on content adapted from:

• Slicer4_CLI.ppt slides presented at NA-MIC AHM 2012 and historically available at https://www.na-mic.org/wiki/AHM2012-Slicer-Overview-and-Migration#Module_Creation_and_Migration

• SlicerProgramming.pptx available at https://github.com/PerkLab/PerkLabBootcamp

It also removes links to obsolete trainings and simply references the training portal.

The discussion also led to the creation of issue #6676 discussing proposal for improving the training portal.
