Akihiro Motoki 152d5c359c doc: Improve PDF document structure
This is a follow-up patch for https://review.opendev.org/676730.

In the TOC of the current PDF file [1], most contents related to
user and admin guides are located under "For Contributors" section.
This is weird. It happens because the latex builder constructs
the document tree based on "toctree" directives even though they
are marked as "hidden".

This commit reorganizes "toctree" per section.
The "toctree" directives must be placed at the end of
individual sections. Otherwise, content of a last section and
content just after "toctree" directive are concatenated
into a same section in the rendered LaTeX document.

This commit also improves the following as well:

* Specify "openany" as "extraclassoptions" to skip blank pages
  along with "oneside" to use same page style for odd and even pages.
* Set "tocdepth" and "secnumdepth" to 3 respectively.
  "tocdepth" controls the depth of TOC and "secnumdepth" controls
  the level of numbered sections in TOC.

Note that this commit does not reorganize file structure under doc/source.
I believe this should be done separately.
