docs: add "The Anatomy of Unleash" (#2138) ...

## What

This PR

1. adds a new topic document, "The Anatomy of Unleash", which explains
how Unleash is built up as a system.
2. It also moves the "topic guides" sidebar entry from position 4 to
position 2.
3. Finally, it introduces a new `Figure` component for the
documentation, to be used with images that should be shown with
captions.

## Why

Referring to the same numbers as mentioned above, here's some background
for these changes:

1. We have gotten requests from enterprise users for a way to help new
Unleash users understand the system. Together with customer success and
customer journey, we agreed that an explanatory guide would be suitable.
It aims to give the reader an introduction into what pieces constitute
the Unleash system.
2. As part of a discussion, it was suggested to move topic guides higher
up to make them more visible. There's a few reasons for this:
1. New users of Unleash should be able to keep reading about Unleash
after the basic introductory material. When left at the bottom, topic
guides are often overlooked
2. As a justification, it was proposed that reference docs are often the
last thing you look for, so it makes sense to put that last.
3. Thinking about a new user's flow, it also makes some sense: first
read introductory material, then dive deeper into what Unleash is and
what you can use it for, then look for how-to guides if you're stuck,
and finally consult the reference material for later.
3. These diagrams aren't necessarily very self-explanatory, so adding a
caption makes a lot of sense. We didn't have a component from this
previously, so I added one.
