Convert API Reference to RST and host it in the Cinder tree

Registered by Sheel Rana

The current API Reference website is based on a baroque publish toolchain using WADL and Maven, which is largely unmaintained. This makes it hard to have an up to date version of our API docs, or describe things like microversions in our docs.

There is a push to convert this to RST instead. We'll be doing that in the cinder now.
This has been implemented in nova tree first to demonstrate this working.
