cb99d0b1c5 Add a new "Security" section
The current security-related documentation is a bit hard to find and
hidden within the development manual. However these are processes that
are not part of a development task but is rather a vulnerability
reporting process.

Create a new "Security" section in the documentation to gather this
information. This will be directly visible in the sidebar when opening
the documentation.

Split the previous security-subjects.rst document into 2 documents:

- security-team.rst: defines the roles of the security teams and its
  members.

- reporting-vulnerabilities.rst: guide to report vulnerabilities to the
  security team.

The plan is to backport these documents to active releases. As a
consequence, this section should be free of instructions and information
that only make sense for a specific release. It should _not_ contain
documents on how to enable security features with Yocto on target
devices, this is unrelated and can be left in the development manual
(for example: dev-manual/vulnerabilities.rst to deal with CVEs).

ac2d3a5377 ref-manual: move runtime-testing section to the test-manual
In the same fashion as the previous commit ("ref-manual/packages: move
ptest section to the test-manual"), move the runtime testing section of
the development tasks manual to the test environment manual.

Add a link to it from the test-manual/intro document.

337a21080b dev-manual: split common-tasks.rst
Reusing content from the master branch which underwent
this change earlier.

This change makes it much easier to backport manual
updates to the kirkstone LTS branch.

To make the change and future updates simpler, reused file contents
from master, only excluding changes which don't apply to kirkstone.

95866fd533 manuals: delete unmaintained history sections
This deletes the history sections in each sub-manual,
which didn't add any value, given that they didn't list
the changes from one Yocto Project version to the next.

af6f5d821d dev-manual: remove 'dev-manual' from filenames
All filenames duplicate the 'manual name', which is not needed, and
make all references longer than they should. Rename all files to be as
consise as possible, and fix all references

bd17892611 sphinx: rename top level document in each manual
It is more common to call the top level document index.rst. This is
what this patch is doing, along with all required references fixup.
