Update documentation for Apple (#2117)

* Rename docs/ios-client.md to docs/apple-client.md. Add instructions
  for macOS; those are copied from the /apple endpoint and slightly
  modified. Fix doc links in the README.
* Move infoboxes for /apple and /windows under the "Goal" section to the
  top. Those should be seen by users first as they contain *their*
  specific headscale URL.
* Swap order of macOS and iOS to move "Profiles" further down.
* Remove apple configuration profiles
* Remove Tailscale versions hints
* Mention /apple and /windows in the README along with their docs

See: #2096

# Connecting an Apple client
## Goal
This documentation has the goal of showing how a user can use the official iOS and macOS [Tailscale](https://tailscale.com) clients with `headscale`.
!!! info "Instructions on your headscale instance"
An endpoint with information on how to connect your Apple device
is also available at `/apple` on your running instance.
## iOS
### Installation
Install the official Tailscale iOS client from the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/tailscale/id1470499037).
### Configuring the headscale URL
- Open Tailscale and make sure you are _not_ logged in to any account
- Open Settings on the iOS device
- Scroll down to the `third party apps` section, under `Game Center` or `TV Provider`
- Find Tailscale and select it
- If the iOS device was previously logged into Tailscale, switch the `Reset Keychain` toggle to `on`
- Enter the URL of your headscale instance (e.g `https://headscale.example.com`) under `Alternate Coordination Server URL`
- Restart the app by closing it from the iOS app switcher, open the app and select the regular sign in option
_(non-SSO)_. It should open up to the headscale authentication page.
- Enter your credentials and log in. Headscale should now be working on your iOS device.
## macOS
### Installation
Choose one of the available [Tailscale clients for macOS](https://tailscale.com/kb/1065/macos-variants) and install it.
### Configuring the headscale URL
#### Command line
Use Tailscale's login command to connect with your headscale instance (e.g `https://headscale.example.com`):
```
tailscale login --login-server <YOUR_HEADSCALE_URL>
```
#### GUI
- ALT + Click the Tailscale icon in the menu and hover over the Debug menu
- Under `Custom Login Server`, select `Add Account...`
- Enter the URL of your headscale instance (e.g `https://headscale.example.com`) and press `Add Account`

# Connecting an iOS client
## Goal
This documentation has the goal of showing how a user can use the official iOS [Tailscale](https://tailscale.com) client with `headscale`.
## Installation
Install the official Tailscale iOS client from the [App Store](https://apps.apple.com/app/tailscale/id1470499037).
Ensure that the installed version is at least 1.38.1, as that is the first release to support alternate control servers.
## Configuring the headscale URL
!!! info "Apple devices"
An endpoint with information on how to connect your Apple devices
(currently macOS only) is available at `/apple` on your running instance.
Ensure that the tailscale app is logged out before proceeding.
Go to iOS settings, scroll down past game center and tv provider to the tailscale app and select it. The headscale URL can be entered into the _"ALTERNATE COORDINATION SERVER URL"_ box.
> **Note**
>
> If the app was previously logged into tailscale, toggle on the _Reset Keychain_ switch.
Restart the app by closing it from the iOS app switcher, open the app and select the regular _Sign in_ option (non-SSO), and it should open up to the headscale authentication page.
Enter your credentials and log in. Headscale should now be working on your iOS device.
