[PATCH 0/6] docs: Unify Getting Started Guides

Thank you for reviewing the patches and for your feedback.

1. Regarding the toctree, I've added the new Getting Started Guide so that
it's accessible via the links in the left column. I've tested this on my
local version, and the warning should disappear once the patch is submitted.

2. As for the existing per-platform documentation, it has not been removed
yet because I'm still in the process of developing the consolidated Getting
Started Guide. The existing documentation will remain in place for the time
being.

3. About the context not yet moved from the existing per-platform guides,
I'm considering how best to integrate this information into the new guide.
Bruce, do you have any thoughts on whether these should be kept around for
reference or moved to other files?

I plan to send updated versions of all patches in this series at the same
time, incorporating all the feedback received.

Thank you again for your time and input.

Thanks!
