This is a rewrite of:
https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Live-disk-backup-with-active-blockcommit
Once this commit merges, the above wiki should point to this kbase
document.
NB: I've intentionally left out the example for pull-based full backups.
I'll tackle it once QMP `x-blockdev-reopen` comes out of experimental
mode in upstream QEMU. Then pull-based can be described for both full
and and differntial backups.
Overall, future documents should cover:
- full backups using both push- and pull-mode
- differential backups using both push- and pull-mode

While the PCI docs are linked from formatdomain.html, finding those
links is not straightforward. It is good for users to highlight them in
the kbase pages. The PCI docs are intentionally not moved to the kbase/
sub-directory in order to avoid breaking hyperlinks.

Historically we've added them in chronological order, but certain
articles are more likely to be needed and thus are easier to find when
placed earlier.

Split the existing list of kbase articles into a 'Usage' category and
into 'Internals/Debugging'. This will later represent the two columns on
the web page.

The container was used to apply CSS classes to the content, so the looks
are degraded. The idea is to have a similar layout to the 'docs.html'
page with multiple columns, which will be added later.

Move docs/kbase.rst to docs/kbase/index.rst so that the directory itself
shows our index page rather than the autogenerated list of files by the
webserver.
