This PR adds doc page that showcases the performance results of different scaling experiments.

  • NOTE: a temp image is used and needs to be replaced with correct images once the benchmarks run on rc_3.8!
    images should be stored in /doc/htmldoc/static/img/

Thanks @ackurth and s. theinen for your work on this

Maybe more specifically

Suggested change
* Largest network size: ~5.6 million neurons and ~61 billion synapses
* Largest network size in this diagram: ~5.6 million neurons and ~61 billion synapses

or to date, or benchmarked. This is not the "largest network size" in any general sense.
Maybe also add that this required X compute nodes, to give an impression of "size"
