Vegard Nossum 2b7703e15a docs: use toctree :caption: and move introduction
The canonical way to add a heading to the ToC is to use :caption:.
Do that.

Let's also move the introduction to the top of the document to be
consistent with most other documents.

.. _development_process_main:
A guide to the Kernel Development Process
=========================================
The purpose of this document is to help developers (and their managers)
work with the development community with a minimum of frustration. It is
an attempt to document how this community works in a way which is
accessible to those who are not intimately familiar with Linux kernel
development (or, indeed, free software development in general). While
there is some technical material here, this is very much a process-oriented
discussion which does not require a deep knowledge of kernel programming to
understand.
