Remove the reference to phabricator

Only a couple of. There are plenty others to go around, some of which are getting worked
on in parallel.

Refs. swh/devel/swh-docs#4732

The project homepage has a proeminent link to the documentation in its
header. Let’s have the documentation link back to the homepage then.

They were broken during the merge done in 0e55968d.

There are plenty of other phabricator links in another places in the
doc, but this ones are the first encountered by a new comer.

It needs to be set to the same color as the button in the card,
otherwise the hover color looks out of place.

The `swh-docs` building process symlinks the documentation for
individual modules into the `swh-docs` tree to generate a single Sphinx
project. The “Edit this page” link therefore needs to point to the right
repository on GitLab in these case.

We try to implement this using the `edit_page_url_template` option
of the PyData theme, see: https://pydata-sphinx-theme.readthedocs.io/en/stable/user_guide/source-buttons.html#custom-edit-url

We can take advantage that it’s a Jinja2 template to recognize
that API documentation file path starts with `devel/swh-` and adjust
accordingly. This is a bit of a hack, but we can hope it’ll be enough as
long as we stay consistent.

This fixes python 3.7 support due to poetry, a dependency of isort, that
removed support for that Python version in a recent release.

Suggested by @zack: “it's useful to have it on top (because a lot people
use docs.s.o for that, at least now), but it also belongs to devel doc,
so people will look for it on the left as well”

This is implements the landing page that was designed during the
documentation sprint in November 2022.

There is probably further work to be done on the copy, maybe tweak
colors and margins on the cards. Proper support for dark mode would
be nice as well. It’s a bit ugly for now.

After merging various parts of Software Heritage documentation in a
single Sphinx instance, the navigation using the Read The Docs theme
became seriously cumbersome.

We switch to PyData Sphinx theme: a clean, Bootstrap-based Sphinx theme
by and for the PyData community. For details, please refer to:
https://pydata-sphinx-theme.readthedocs.io/

One major upside is that by default supports three level of navigation:

- top-level parts in the header bar (for us, they would refer to
  `devel`, `sysadm` and `user`)
- a left sidebar for sections in the current part,
- a right sidebar for the contents of the current page.

This maps really well to our hierarchy.

Some changes made to better navigate the various parts of our
navigation:

- Rename “Development Documentation” to just “Development”.
- Rename “Sysadmin Documentation” to just “Infrastructure”.
- Rename “User Documentation” to just “Usage”.
- Promote the API reference from Development to the top-level.

Some other improvements to better benefit the new theme:

- Replace the vertical logo with the horizontal one to better fit the
  header.
- Add links to GitLab, PyPI and status.s.o to the header.
- Remove the unused Alegreya font.

The only two titles at the second level were 'Important documentation links'
and 'Content', which look weird and are not very useful.

And this level prevented headings inside package documentation from being
shown in the TOC at all, which means the TOC couldn't be used to navigate
within a package's documentation.

To match the level we had de facto before merging devel/sysadm/user
into a single tree

0e55968d removed :titlesonly: from the
root toctree, which caused sphinx_rtd_theme to switch the mode it uses
to display *all* sidebars.

This config change reverts this behavior, but keeps the content of
pages unchanged.

suggested by @douardda

It simplifies documentation build configuration as the include path
might change depending on where the sphinx-build command is invoked.

These changes allow to build all SWH documentations (developmment, system
administration and user) using a single sphinx-build command, meaning they
are now merged into a single one with shared index of references.

Development documentation is now rooted to docs/devel, user one to docs/user
and sysadmin one to docs/sysadm so a good amount of files were moved.

A couple of configuration files and makefiles were updated to reflect that change
and the building / cleaning processes were made more reliable.

Calling make in root directory of swh-docs will execute the development build
of the documentation in a tox environment while calling make in docs folder
will use the current virtualenv.

It remains possible to build each documentation in a standalone way by
calling make in their root directory.

Closes #4496

Ref. swh/infra/sysadm-environment#4724

Some deprecated tox 3.x features have been removed in tox 4.x
and some install behaviors changed between the two versions.

So add tox 4.x support while keeping tox >= 3.7 compatibility.
