Anas Nashif fc6137001b doc: move documetnation context to root directory
This will allow inclusion of documentation files that exist outside of
doc/ and will make it possible to add rst files across the tree,
especially for boards, samples and tests.

Welcome to Zephyr Kernel

Welcome to the Zephyr Project.

Thank you for your interest in the Zephyr Project. These instructions are
designed to walk you through generating the Zephyr Project's documentation.

Documentation Notes
*******************

The project's documentation currently comprises the following items:

* An Installation Guide for Linux host systems

* A set of Collaboration Guidelines for the project.

* Doxygen output from the code base for all APIs.

Installing the documentation processors
***************************************

Install the current version of ``Sphinx``, type:

.. code-block:: bash

   $ git clone https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx.git sphinx

   $ cd sphinx

   $ sudo -E python setup.py install

   $ cd ..

   $ git clone https://github.com/michaeljones/breathe.git breathe

   $ cd breathe

   $ sudo -E python setup.py install

To install ReadTheDocs.org theme, use pip to install the python package:

.. code-block:: bash

   $ pip install sphinx_rtd_theme

If the above theme is installed, it will be used instead of the default theme.

.. note::

   Make sure that ``Doxygen`` is installed in your system.
   The installation of Doxygen is beyond the scope of this document.

Running the Documentation Generators
************************************

Assuming that the Zephyr Project tree with the doc directory is in
``DIRECTORY``, type:

.. code-block:: bash

   $ cd DIRECTORY/doc

   $ make doxy html

Find the output in ``DIRECTORY/doc/_build/html/index.html``

Review the available formats with:

.. code-block:: bash

   $ make -C DIRECTORY/doc doxy html

If you want the LaTeX PDF output, you need to install all the Latex
packages first. That installation is beyond the scope of this document.
