As presented to the TSC, Zephyr's out-of-box experience for new
developers is, well, complicated. A number of suggestions were
presented including simplifying the getting started material to present
a straight-forward path through the setup and installation steps through
to getting a sample application built, flashed, and running.
This PR is a work-in-progress towards addressing this OOB experience
with a minimal-distractions version of the GSG. Alternatives, warnings,
and material that could lead the developer astray were moved to
alternative/advanced instruction documents (based on the previous
separate Linux/macOS/Windows setup guides) and a new "Beyond the GSG"
document.
We do take advantage of a sphinx-tabs extension for synchronized tabs to
present OS-specific instructions: clicking on one tab will display all
same-named tabs throughout the doc.
We hope (and will continue evaluating) that this new GSG gets developers
set up quickly and then we can send them along to other documents to
continue learning about Zephyr and trying other sample apps.
Thanks for all your previous feedback that I've worked
into this new version.

Updates based on discussion and changes in supported features.
- Make the guide shorter by removing content that's not relevant to
most users who are truly just getting started, such as information
about pre-LTS versions that did not support west, and by being more
concise in some places.
- Decrease the number of colored boxes. At the latest TSC F2F, the
"note / warning / note / tip" contents were identified as a
readability problem.
- Add additional information based on new west features, like "west
boards".

The getting started documentation has become a bit of a mess over
time:
- The reader needs to jump forward and backward in the documents
depending on what their system already has installed (e.g. "start by
cloning Zephyr, oh wait, see below if you don't have Git yet" etc.).
- The operating system setup guides, toolchain setup instructions, and
application build and run information have each become their own
balkanized fiefdom, with duplicated, confusing and sometimes
inconsistent results.
- Linux documentation for all distributions is incomplete in some
places (the Arch documentation in particular is vestigial)
and wrong in others (platforms like Ubuntu still nominally require
tools, like autoconf, that haven't been necessary since we stopped
using the C Kconfig tools)
- The dependencies needed to build the documentation have
gotten *huge* since the LaTeX additions and massively overstate the
footprint of Zephyr's real dependencies. This is particularly a
problem on Linux, where those dependencies were not clearly
separated from those needed to build Zephyr.
- The toolchain setup documentation is confusing and scattered across
the main file and the platform-specific files. There are various
bits of incomplete and/or incorrect information. For example, the
docs imply that you can use the Zephyr SDK on non-Linux hosts, which
isn't true. As another example, some toolchains, such as GNU Arm
Embedded, are documented several times. As a final example, some
toolchains, such as Intel's ISSM, are squirrelled away in the
Windows document when there are Linux builds available.
Overhaul the pages to fix these issues and otherwise clean up the
language. One significant side-effect is that all the
toolchain-related information is rooted in a single toctree. Another
is that it should now be possible to follow the instructions, in
order, on any supported platform.

This adds new targets to generate build documentation through
LaTEX to PDF.
There are a few notes:
1. pdflatex complains about the tex file generated by doxygen
so it needs to be fixed with a Python script before feeding
in through pdflatex.
2. SVG files are not recognized by pdflatex so they are converted
to known good format on the fly, only for producing PDF. This
uses the libRSVG's rsvg-convert tool.
Relates to #6782.

The 'getting started' documentation is stating that one should set
some environment variables, but this is not necessary because the user
has already been instructed to set the variables in the
platform-specific guides.
The duplicated documentation should be removed because it is inferiour
to the original documentation. E.g. this documentation does not
describe how to permanently set environment variables. Also, it is
confusingly demonstrating how to use the SDK on Windows, but this is
not supported.
I believe that the purpose of the section is to verify that the user
has not misconfigured or misinstalled the toolchain, but this
responsibility is handled better by CMake itself.

Remove the C Kconfig tools and various scripts associated with them.
scripts/kconfig/diffconfig is popular, so keep it.
I don't know whether anyone is using scripts/kconfig/config. Remove it
and see if anyone screams.
scripts/kconfig/streamline_config.pl deals with modules ('m' values) and
can safely be removed. Zephyr's Kconfig files do not use modules.

Restructured the guide to follow a basic three step process: Set up, develop,
build. All information that is independent of the OS selection was taken out of
of the OS related documents and placed in the general set up sections.
A new section, Developing Zephyr Applications, was added with links to all the
development relevant section of the documentation.
The content in local_development.rst was split between the setting_up.rst,
installation_linux.rst and installation_mac.rst files as appropriate.
This new structure provides a much better flow for developers beginning their
Zephyr develpment.
Applied all of Inaky's suggestions in the refactored content.
Minor markup fixes and language edits were also perfomed during the refactoring.
Fixed a cross-reference that was broken during the refactor.
