This patch will fix the formatting errors concerning code snippet,
lines 245 and 256 respectively.
The code snippet is updated to 'shell' to lex it appropriately.

This change adds a configuration for commitlint - a tool designed to
enforce a particular commit message style - and run it as part of Git's
commit-msg hook. This validates commits immediately after the editor has
been exited, and the configuration is derived from the configuration we
provide to Commitizen.
While the configuration provided suggests a maximum header and body
length, neither of these are hard errors. This is to accommodate the
occasional commit where it may be difficult or impossible to comply
with the length requirements (for example, with a particularly long
scope, or a long URL in the message body).

- Add some guidance about the type of information a patch author should
provide to facilitate the review (and for future reference).
- Make a number of implicit expectations explicit:
- Every patch must compile.
- All CI tests must pass.
- Mention that the patch author is expected to add reviewers and explain
how to choose them.
- Explain the patch submission rules in terms of Gerrit labels.
Also do some cosmetic changes, like adding empty lines, shuffling some
paragraphs around.

Move the guidance for copyright and license headers out of the paragraph

Also do some cosmetic changes (adding empty lines, fitting in longer
lines in the 80-column limit, ...) to improve the readability of the RST

We have noticed that Phabricator (the ticketing system on tf.org [1])
has far less visibility within the community than the mailing list [2].
For this reason, let's drop usage of Phabricator for anything else than
bug reports. For the rest, advise contributors to start a discussion on
the mailing list, where they are more likely to get feedback.

This patch expands the coding style documentation, splitting it
into two documents: the core style rules and extended guidelines.
Note that it does not redefine or change the coding style (aside
from section 4.6.2) - generally, it is only documenting the
existing style in more detail.
The aim is for the coding style to be more readable and, in turn,
for it to be followed by more people. We can use this as a more
concrete reference when discussing the accepted style with external
contributors.

-Wpadded warns whenever the C compiler automatically includes any
padding in a structure. Because TF-A has a large number of structures,
this occurs fairly frequently and is incredibly verbose, and as such is
unlikely to ever be fixed.
The utility of this warning is also extremely limited - knowing that a
structure includes padding does not point to the existence of an error,
and is probably quite unlikely to indicate actually buggy behaviour.
Therefore, it's probably best to keep this warning off at all times.

The User Guide document has grown organically over time and
now covers a wide range of topics, making it difficult to
skim read and extract information from. Currently, it covers
these topics and maybe a couple more:
- Requirements (hardware, tools, libs)
- Checking out the repo
- Basic build instructions
- A comprehensive list of build flags
- FIP packaging
- Building specifically for Juno
- Firmware update images
- EL3 payloads
- Preloaded BL33 boot flow
- Running on FVPs
- Running on Juno
I have separated these out into a few groups that become new
documents. Broadly speaking, build instructions for the tools,
for TF-A generally, and for specific scenarios are separated.
Content relating to specific platforms (Juno and the FVPs are
Arm-specific platforms, essentially) has been moved into the
documentation that is specific to those platforms, under
docs/plat/arm.

The index.rst page is now the primary landing page for the TF-A
documentation. It contains quite a lot of content these days,
including:
- The project purpose and general intro
- A list of functionality
- A list of planned functionality
- A list of supported platforms
- "Getting started" links to other documents
- Contact information for raising issues
This patch creates an "About" chapter in the table
of contents and moves some content there. In order,
the above listed content:
- Stayed where it is. This is the right place for it.
- Moved to About->Features
- Moved to About->Features (in subsection)
- Stayed where it is. Moved in a later patch.
- Was expanded in-place
- Moved to About->Contact

Currently links between documents are using the format:
<path/to/><filename>.rst
This was required for services like GitHub because they render each
document in isolation - linking to another document is like linking
to any other file, just provide the full path.
However, with the new approach, the .rst files are only the raw
source for the documents. Once the documents have been rendered
the output is now in another format (HTML in our case) and so,
when linking to another document, the link must point to the
rendered version and not the .rst file.
The RST spec provides a few methods for linking between content.
The parent of this patch enabled the automatic creation of anchors
for document titles - we will use these anchors as the targets for
our links. Additional anchors can be added by hand if needed, on
section and sub-section titles, for example.
An example of this new format, for a document with the title
"Firmware Design" is :ref:`Firmware Design`.
One big advantage of this is that anchors are not dependent on
paths. We can then move documents around, even between directories,
without breaking any links between documents. Links will need to be
updated only if the title of a document changes.

These are no longer needed as there will always be a table of contents
rendered to the left of every page.
Some of these lists can be quite long and, when opening a page, the
reader sees nothing but a huge list of contents! After this patch,
the document contents are front-and-centre and the contents are
nicely rendered in the sidebar without duplication.

This patch attempts to standardise the document titles as well as
adding titles to documents that were missing one. The aim is to
remove needless references to "TF-A" or "Trusted Firmware" in the
title of every document and to make sure that the title matches
with the document content.

This change creates the following directories under docs/
in order to provide a grouping for the content:
- components
- design
- getting_started
- perf
- process
In each of these directories an index.rst file is created
and this serves as an index / landing page for each of the
groups when the pages are compiled. Proper layout of the
top-level table of contents relies on this directory/index
structure.
Without this patch it is possible to build the documents
correctly with Sphinx but the output looks messy because
there is no overall hierarchy.
