Daniel P. Berrange b17a97f223 docs: rewrite content on front page to be more useful
The front page contains a bunch of content that is either
outdated (eg links to libvirt qpid) or not particularly
useful (links to vendor hypervisor sites).

This rewrites it to be more directly useful to visitors,
providing a updated intro to libvirt project, direct
links to key pieces of website content (new contributors
guide, security process, bug reporting, XML formats), and
feed showing recent 5 blog posts on the virt tools planet.

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
