Currently we have a short paragraph saying that patches must include
a Signed-off-by line, and merely link to the kernel documentation.
The linked kernel docs have a lot of content beyond the part about
sign-off an thus are misleading/distracting to QEMU contributors.
This introduces a dedicated 'code-provenance' page in QEMU talking
about why we require sign-off, explaining the other tags we commonly
use, and what to do in some edge cases.

We don't currently have a clear place in the documentation to describe
the roles and responsibilities of a maintainer. Lets create one so we
can. I've moved a few small bits out of other files to try and keep
everything in one place.

This was confusing and in the case of qtest was hiding the details of
the qgraph sub-document in the qtest pages.

We have a growing set of developer docs but the index is currently in
order of when stuff was added. Try and make things a bit easier to
find my adding sub indexes and organising into themes.
