docs: split vcs_support into admin/vcs_setup and usage/vcs_notes
The existing page on VCS support was a mix of information needed to setup
Kallithea with respect to version control systems, with information
regarding using version control systems (or specific aspects of it) with
Kallithea.
Move the first part to the Administrator Guide, and rebrand the second part
as VCS Usage Notes.
In vcs_notes.rst, the general info is moved above the Mercurial-specific
part, but otherwise left untouched.

==================
Repository locking
==================
Kallithea has a *repository locking* feature, disabled by default. When
enabled, every initial clone and every pull gives users (with write permission)
the exclusive right to do a push.
When repository locking is enabled, repositories get a ``locked`` flag.
The hg/git commands ``hg/git clone``, ``hg/git pull``,
and ``hg/git push`` influence this state:
- A ``clone`` or ``pull`` action locks the target repository
if the user has write/admin permissions on this repository.
- Kallithea will remember the user who locked the repository so only this
specific user can unlock the repo by performing a ``push``
command.
- Every other command on a locked repository from this user and every command
from any other user will result in an HTTP return code 423 (Locked).
Additionally, the HTTP error will mention the user that locked the repository
(e.g., “repository <repo> locked by user <user>”).
Each repository can be manually unlocked by an administrator from the
repository settings menu.
