website: convert docs pages to markdown This includes all of the top-level files in the docs folder except for status and terms, which are going to be a little trickier to convert. This includes no editorial changes. There are a few minor stylistic changes (like the auth value table in server-config converted into a list). Text has also been mostly wrapped at 80 columns, which accounts for a lot of the changes as well. Change-Id: I3782158f05d2b3c72e6cb44bff92c46ccc231a96

# Use Cases
website: fix remaining old links to /docs/ interestingly, I also discovered that GitHub will properly resolve links that are relative to the root path (e.g. "/doc/foo")... it properly rewrites these links to reference the named file relative to the repository root. also add a /doc/contributing.md file. This will never be served from the website, since we have a redirect handler in place, but is added so that we don't have broken links when browsing the docs on GitHub.

These are some higher-level roadmap goals. Only the first few are done, but all
are various stages of implementation (as of 2013-06-12).

backups are basically free.
* **Efficient remote filesystem**: should be easy to do an aggressively caching
remote FUSE filesystem. Read-only is trivial. Read-write shouldn't be too
painful. Every modification would be snapshotted implicitly, so revision
control would be the default.
* **Decentralized sharing system**: share anything of yours with anybody or
everybody (private is the default). This is already starting to work. See
