Move all documentation (except the kernel.md, for which it makes sense to be kept here) to developers.home-assistant.io.

Just bluetooth.md was intentionally not preserved, as the information value was low and it was out of date anyway.

See home-assistant/developers.home-assistant#2748

*/**(html|markdown|md): - For instructional content in documentation, use a direct and authoritative tone. Avoid expressions of politeness such as 'may' or 'please', and ensure the goal of the instruction is fronted.

  • Apply the Microsoft Style Guide to ensure documentation maintains clarity and conciseness.
  • In step-by-step instructions, front the location phrase in the instructional sentence.
  • In step-by-step instructions, front the 'goal' in the instructional sentence.
  • In step-by-step instructions, if in doubt what to front, front the 'goal' before the location phrase in the instructional sentence.
  • do not hyphenate terms like 'top-right' or 'bottom-left' with 'corner'

*/**(html|markdown|md): - Use bold to mark UI strings.

  • If "" are used to mark UI strings, replace them by bold.

  • Be brief in your replies and don't add fluff like "thank you for..." and "Please let me know if"

  • Use sentence-style capitalization also in headings.

Is there anything remaining in Documentation/?

If not, I suggest to move this just to the global README.md, it will have better visibility as well.

Yeah, there's kernel.md. Maybe we could add a Documentation section to the top-level readme a move this paragraph over, but I still prefer to keep kernel.md here to make tracking kernel versions in past releases via blame easier.
