refactor: move docs into new structure / fix links for SEO (#2416)
## What

This (admittedly massive) PR updates the "physical" documentation
structure and fixes url inconsistencies and SEO problems reported by
marketing. The main points are:

- remove or move directories : advanced, user_guide, deploy, api
- move the files contained within to the appropriate one of topics,
how-to, tutorials, or reference
- update internal doc links and product links to the content
- create client-side redirects for all the urls that have changed.

A number of the files have been renamed in small ways to better match
their url and to make them easier to find. Additionally, the top-level
api directory has been moved to /reference/api/legacy/unleash (see the
discussion points section for more on this).

## Why

When moving our doc structure to diataxis a while back, we left the
"physical' files lying where they were, because it didn't matter much to
the new structure. However, that did introduce some inconsistencies with
where you place docs and how we organize them.

There's also the discrepancies in whether urls us underscores or hyphens
(which isn't necessarily the same as their file name), which has been
annoying me for a while, but now has also been raised by marketing as an
issue in terms of SEO.

## Discussion points

The old, hand-written API docs have been moved from /api to
/reference/api/legacy/unleash. There _is_ a /reference/api/unleash
directory, but this is being populated by the OpenAPI plugin, and mixing
those could only cause trouble. However, I'm unsure about putting
/legacy/ in the title, because the API isn't legacy, the docs are. Maybe
we could use another path? Like /old-docs/ or something? I'd appreciate
some input on this.

frontend

This directory contains the Unleash Admin UI frontend app.

Run with a local instance of the unleash-api

First, start the unleash-api backend on port 4242. Then, start the frontend dev server:

cd ~/frontend
yarn install
yarn run start

Run with a sandbox instance of the Unleash API

Alternatively, instead of running unleash-api on localhost, you can use a remote instance:

cd ~/frontend
yarn install
yarn run start:sandbox

Running end-to-end tests

We have a set of Cypress tests that run on the build before a PR can be merged so it's important that you check these yourself before submitting a PR. On the server the tests will run against the deployed Heroku app so this is what you probably want to test against:

yarn run start:sandbox

In a different shell, you can run the tests themselves:

yarn run e2e:heroku

If you need to test against patches against a local server instance, you'll need to run that, and then run the end to end tests using:

yarn run e2e

You may also need to test that a feature works against the enterprise version of unleash. Assuming the Heroku instance is still running, this can be done by:

yarn run start:enterprise
yarn run e2e

Generating the OpenAPI client

The frontend uses an OpenAPI client generated from the backend's OpenAPI spec. Whenever there are changes to the backend API, the client should be regenerated:

./scripts/generate-openapi.sh

This script assumes that you have a running instance of the enterprise backend at http://localhost:4242. The new OpenAPI client will be generated from the runtime schema of this instance. The target URL can be changed by setting the UNLEASH_OPENAPI_URL env var.
