docs: arm: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst
Converts ARM the text files to ReST, preparing them to be an
architecture book.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
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.

This file +must be loaded at 0xc0008000 in Brutus's memory and execution started at +0xc0008000 as well with the value of registers r0 = 0 and r1 = 16 upon +entry. + +But prior to execute the kernel, a ramdisk image must also be loaded in +memory. Use memory address 0xd8000000 for this. Note that the file +containing the (compressed) ramdisk image must not exceed 4 MB. + +Typically, you'll need angelboot to load the kernel. +The following angelboot.opt file should be used:: + + base 0xc0008000 + entry 0xc0008000 + r0 0x00000000 + r1 0x00000010 + device /dev/ttyS0 + options "9600 8N1" + baud 115200 + otherfile ramdisk_img.gz + otherbase 0xd8000000 + +Then load the kernel and ramdisk with:: + + angelboot -f angelboot.opt zImage + +The first Brutus serial port (assumed to be linked to /dev/ttyS0 on your +host PC) is used by angel to load the kernel and ramdisk image.
