6243a4b280 Rework the user guide
Currently it only contains (outdated) explanations how Ironic works.
Move them one level deeper and migrate the content relevant to users:
* Preparing instance images from the installation guide
* Deploying nodes from the standalone guide

Compatibility shims are provided for migrated pages.

530ec9d0b1 Docs: split away user image building and highlight whole disk images
The user image documentation applies to both standalone and glance
usage, but we keep it in the glance section. This change creates
a new page to talk about user images.

We also don't emphasize the difference between partition and whole
disk images enough, resulting in users trying whole disk images
with kernel/ramdisk set. Make the difference clearer.
