Restructure documentation. Now the documentation has installation, administration, usage, development, contributing the 5 main parts (#23629)
- **Installation**: includes how to install Gitea and related other
tools, also includes upgrade Gitea
- **Administration**: includes how to configure Gitea, customize Gitea
and manage Gitea instance out of Gitea admin UI
- **Usage**: includes how to use Gitea's functionalities. A sub
documentation is about packages, in future we could also include CI/CD
and others.
- **Development**: includes how to integrate with Gitea's API, how to
develop new features within Gitea
- **Contributing**: includes how to contribute code to Gitea
repositories.

After this is merged, I think we can have a sub-documentation of `Usage`
part named `Actions` to describe how to use Gitea actions

Some jurisdictions (such as EU), requires certain legal pages (e.g. Privacy Policy) to be added to website. Follow these steps to add them to your Gitea instance.

Getting Pages

Gitea source code ships with sample pages, available in contrib/legal directory. Copy them to custom/public/. For example, to add Privacy Policy:

wget -O /path/to/custom/public/privacy.html https://raw.githubusercontent.com/go-gitea/gitea/main/contrib/legal/privacy.html.sample

Now you need to edit the page to meet your requirements. In particular you must change the email addresses, web addresses and references to "Your Gitea Instance" to match your situation.

You absolutely must not place a general ToS or privacy statement that implies that the Gitea project is responsible for your server.

Make it Visible

Create or append to /path/to/custom/templates/custom/extra_links_footer.tmpl:

<a class="item" href="{{AppSubUrl}}/assets/privacy.html">Privacy Policy</a>

Restart Gitea to see the changes.
