Add a small paragraph in the Contribution Guidelines
documentation to stress that cherry-picking of patches
into other pull requests is an allowed practive. Add a
link to additional documentation clarifying policies
around modifying patches of other developers.

A few new contributors, after reading the uncrustify section
of the contribution guidelines, have decided to run
existing Zephyr files thru uncrustify, and include in commits
with minor fixes lots of styles changes.
This is something we do not want to encourage.
To avoid this, modify a bit the uncrustify section to
discourage people from doing just that.

builds@lists.zephyrproject.org archives the CI build results for every
and nightly build. Add references to this in the contribution
guidelines and introduction (pulled from README).
Also added a reference to the "Asking for Help" doc (there was a note to
add this once that doc was merged).
Fixes: #15652

Zephyr requires braces on every code block that a keyword introduces, so
list the complete set in the documentation.

The command `recheck` was always experimental and should not be part of
the contribution guidelines and flow. It is not working now, so remove
it from the docs.

Linking to API material requires knowing the pecularities of how
doxygen, sphinx, and breathe work. In an attempt to hide some of this
we're preparing the current docs to allow use of configuration defaults
that will let us more simply use a default role that will hunt for a
reference target in the various domains that are available by using a
default "role" of "all". This will let us use the simple notation
`functionname` or `typename` without fully specifying the reference as
:c:func:`functionname`.
This patch cleans up exising docs that were (incorrectly) using single
backtics where double backtics should have been used, and also found
some typos (such as a space between the role name and the reference,
such as :file: `filename`, and a missing colon such as
c:func:`functionname`)
This is a start to address issue #14313

Let folks know that using amend and force pushes for adding review
changes is the recommend method for contributing to the project, but it
can cause some unexpected behavior from GitHub.

A new role :zephyr_file: is available that renders to a link to the file
or folder in GitHub. Find appropriate references using :file: and
convert to :zephyr_file: to take advantage of its linking capability.

Running checkpatch in pre-commit hook could be a constraint
for day to day work. Though, running it before pushing to
zephyr repo is highly recommended.
Add a series push script callable from pre-push hook.
Document how to use it in contribute section.

Overhaul the west documentation so that it matches the model that is
currently implemented in the west repository.
This model is no longer subject to change in the short or mid term,
since it has been selected as the only viable one for multi-repo
management using west.
