- "Image" header support for RISC-V kernel binaries, compatible with
the current ARM64 "Image" header

Now that several arch documents were converted to ReST,
add their indexes to Documentation/index.rst and remove the
:orphan: from them.

Currently, the last stage boot loaders such as U-Boot can accept only
uImage which is an unnecessary additional step in automating boot
process.
Add an image header that boot loader understands and boot Linux from
flat Image directly.
This header is based on ARM64 boot image header and provides an
opportunity to combine both ARM64 & RISC-V image headers in future.
Also make sure that PE/COFF header can co-exist in the same image so
that EFI stub can be supported for RISC-V in future. EFI specification
needs PE/COFF image header in the beginning of the kernel image in order
to load it as an EFI application. In order to support EFI stub, code0
should be replaced with "MZ" magic string and res4(at offset 0x3c)
should point to the rest of the PE/COFF header (which will be added
during EFI support).
Tested on both QEMU and HiFive Unleashed using OpenSBI + U-Boot + Linux.

The conversion here is trivial:
- Adjust the document title's markup
- Do some whitespace alignment;
- mark literal blocks;
- Use ReST way to markup indented lists.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.
