The QA area hasn't had any love for a long time. Remove the bits that we don't
use any more or that are superfluous given how the site indexes pages. Add
links to some of the new QA related tools developed for Apertis.

We link to the hardware reference page from the home page, as a result this
page is likely to be one which is visited by people generally unfamilar with
Apertis.

We should not promote the use of daily images to those likely to be looking to
evaluate Apertis - they should be using the stable images.

Booting non-SDK images in VirtualBox is not a supported option, so whilst it
works for many images, this is not guaranteed (and the minimal OSTree images
are known not to boot in VirtualBox). Set expectations with regards to running
in this configuration.

The licensing documentation is linked from the home page, but is a bit of a
mess, with guidance on documenting licensing and information about the Apertis
licensing scanning infrastructure mixed with Apertis licensing policies.

Split out the license scanning documentation into a separate architecture
document. Move the small amount of policy documentation from the applying
licensing document and move to guides.

The homepage currently uses a very standard layout, which doesn't provide
a very compelling initial impression. Improve the layout to give the
website a more professional feel, as implemented by Jon Wallace but replace
`DIVclass` with distinct shortcodes.

The Apertis theme uses a shortcode called `DIVclass` to allow
semi-arbitrary CSS to be applied. Simplify this for document writers by
spliting the responsive table functionality (demoed on the bundle spec) as
a separate shortcode.

The v2019 release has reached the end of its support period. It also marks the
point at which we are now fully into the current Apertis release cadence, with
a development, stable and old stable release being supported.

The packages concept came from the old wiki. It more or less duplicates the
content listed in the "Platform APIs and Services" architectural document, but
also lists a number of packages that have long since been removed from Apertis.

the architectural document and deleting the packages page.
