This commit sets up a new documentation structure and format:
* The directory struture changes from a Sphinx project to an Antora module layout.
* The formatting of the content changes from reStructuredText to AsciiDoc.
The documentation must now be built and published with Antora.
This change was done to make maintaining versioning documentation easier. As
Antora is designed to generate versioned documentation.
The old directory structure was:
<ROOT>
- doc/
- cql3/
- CQL.css
- CQL.textile
- source/
- _static/
- _templates/
- _theme/
- _util/
- <other directory sections>/
- conf.py
- index.rst
- <other *.rst pages>
- make.bat
- Makefile
- README.md
- SASI.md
- <*.spec files>
- <generation scripts>
The new directory structure organises the documentation into modules:
<ROOT>
- doc/
- cql3
- modules/
- cassandra/
- assets/
- examples/
- pages/
- partials/
- nav.adoc
- ROOT/
- pages/
- nav.adoc
- scripts/
- antora.yaml
- README.md
- SASI.md
- <*.spec files>
