Court Ewing 8895ae110f docs: Overhaul of doc structure for 5.0+ (#8821)
This overhaul of the docs structure puts Kibana's documentation more
inline with the structure that is used in Elasticsearch. This will help
us better organize the docs going forward as more docs are added.

This also includes a few necessary content changes for 5.0.

[[supported-platforms]]
[float]
== Supported platforms
Packages of Kibana are provided for and tested against Linux, Darwin, and
Windows. Since Kibana runs on Node.js, we include the necessary Node.js
binaries for these platforms. Running Kibana against a separately maintained
version of Node.js is not supported.
[float]
[[elasticsearch-version]]
== Elasticsearch version
Kibana should be configured to run against an Elasticsearch node of the same
version.
Running different major version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
Kibana 5.x and Elasticsearch 2.x) is not supported, nor is running a minor
version of Kibana that is newer than the version of Elasticsearch (e.g. Kibana
5.1 and Elasticsearch 5.0).
Running different patch version releases of Kibana and Elasticsearch (e.g.
Kibana 5.0.0 and Elasticsearch 5.0.1) is generally supported, though we
encourage users to run the same versions of Kibana and Elasticsearch down to
the patch version.
