Commit ee55acc1 updated the long term reproducibility document to

Amend the diagrams to match the implemented approach where there's a

The contribution process document has some out of date sections, tweak
these to make it aligned to current expectations:

- Secure Boot document is now not a design document but an architectural
  document. Remove the reference as it's no longer helpful. Point to
  Concepts section instead.
- Designs is a section that's being removed. Point to Architecture and
  Guides for current implementations.
- We no longer tag releases manually, remove that as example of manual
  process.
- There's much less need for OBS accounts make this clearer.

Completing our release cycles on 22/Dec was deemed too risky, so here's
a revised schedule.

Putting it in another format:

2020-11-12 v2019.5   feature freeze
2020-11-13 v2020.3   feature freeze
2020-11-16 v2019.5   code freeze
2020-11-17 v2021pre  feature freeze
2020-11-19 v2019.5   RC1
2020-11-20 v2020.3   code freeze
2020-11-20 v2019.5   RC testing start
2020-11-23 v2021pre  code freeze
2020-11-25 v2022dev0 feature freeze
2020-11-26 v2019.5   RC testing end
2020-11-26 v2020.3   RC1
2020-11-27 v2019.5   release
2020-11-27 v2020.3   RC testing start
2020-12-02 v2020.3   RC testing end
2020-12-02 v2021pre  RC1
2020-12-02 v2022dev0 code freeze
2020-12-03 v2020.3   release
2020-12-03 v2021pre  RC testing start
2020-12-09 v2021pre  RC testing end
2020-12-09 v2022dev0 RC1
2020-12-10 v2021pre  release
2020-12-10 v2022dev0 RC testing start
2020-12-16 v2022dev0 RC testing end
2020-12-17 v2022dev0 release

The RC testing periods would then be:

2020-11-20..26    v2019.5
2020-11-27..12-02 v2020.3
2020-12-03..09    v2021pre
2020-12-10..16    v2022dev0

The releases:

2020-11-27 v2019.5
2020-12-03 v2020.3
2020-12-10 v2021pre
2020-12-17 v2022dev0

The site bar currently highlights all sections in orange. A request has
been made to uniquely highlight a section of the current document.

Switch the highlighting of the menu entries to blue by standard (a lighten
version of the Apertis blue as the standard blue is too dark) and use
orange for the selected section if needed.

We mostly use a serif font for text bosy, however the search is currently
using sans serif. The search results are also very spaced out, limiting
the number that are visible on the screen at any one time.

Tweak to use the serif font used elsewhere and loose some of the white
space.

The persistent workspace documentation is currently in the SDK usage document.
The usage document covers some very basic usage, whilst the persistent
workspace is a little bit more of an advanced topic. Split it out into its own
document and move both to guides.

Additionally the design document is still present for the persistent workspace
feature. This is now redundant since the design has been implemented. Move the
limited amount of pertanent information from the design document to the guide
and remove the design document to avoid confusion.
