Merge user and users sections of the docs
The openstack doc standard location is 'user', so go with that.
Incorporate pages from the shade and occ docs into the appropriate
places in the user index file.

This still leaves user/logging and user/guide/logging which need to be
rationalized. That will come in the next commit, as it also needs to
actually rationalize the logging helper functions.

Remove the Makefile, as it's not used by things.

Managing Policies
=================
A **policy type** can be treated as the meta-type of a `Policy` object. A
registry of policy types is built when the Cluster service starts. When
creating a `Policy` object, you will indicate the policy type used in its
`spec` property.
List Policies
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To examine the list of policies:
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: list_policies
When listing policies, you can specify the sorting option using the ``sort``
parameter and you can do pagination using the ``limit`` and ``marker``
parameters.
Full example: `manage policy`_
Create Policy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When creating a policy, you will provide a dictionary with keys and values
according to the policy type referenced.
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: create_policy
Optionally, you can specify a ``metadata`` keyword argument that contains some
key-value pairs to be associated with the policy.
Full example: `manage policy`_
Find Policy
~~~~~~~~~~~
To find a policy based on its name or ID:
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: find_policy
Full example: `manage policy`_
Get Policy
~~~~~~~~~~
To get a policy based on its name or ID:
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: get_policy
Full example: `manage policy`_
Update Policy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After a policy is created, most of its properties are immutable. Still, you
can update a policy's ``name`` and/or ``metadata``.
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: update_policy
The Cluster service doesn't allow updating the ``spec`` of a policy. The only
way to achieve that is to create a new policy.
Full example: `manage policy`_
Delete Policy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A policy can be deleted after creation, provided that it is not referenced
by any active clusters or nodes. If you attempt to delete a policy that is
still in use, you will get an error message.
.. literalinclude:: ../../examples/clustering/policy.py
:pyobject: delete_policy
