Move out of Gitlab Wiki

I understand that this change is quite unreadable and hard to review, sorry for forgetting to do atomic commits. This patch does not change too much content wise, it just
* Gets everything from gitlab wiki
* Removes some specific gitlab hacks
* Formats all documentation file names to be in snake case so they look the same way as our code does

# Admin tasks
## Important
If your instance is running in prod mode (most likely it is) make sure to prefix every command with `MIX_ENV=prod`.
## User management
It is possible to obtain a list of all available tasks with their options by executing `mix help pleroma.user`
### Adding users
Use `mix pleroma.user invite` to generate an invite link for a new user.
Also, `mix pleroma.user new NICKNAME EMAIL [OPTION...]` can be used to register an account.
### Making a user a moderator/admin/locked
Run `mix pleroma.user set username --[no-]moderator` to make user a moderator or remove the moderator status.
To make the user admin or locked use `mix pleroma.user set NICKNAME --[no-]admin` and `mix pleroma.user set NICKNAME --[no-]locked` respectively
### Resetting a password
Run `mix pleroma.user reset_password NICKNAME` to generate a password reset link that you can then send to the user.
### Banning users
Run `mix pleroma.user rm NICKNAME` to remove a local account.
To deactivate(block from the server completely)/reactivate local and remote user accounts run:
`mix pleroma.user toggle_activated NICKNAME@instancename`
## Relay managment
It is possible to obtain a list of all available tasks with their options by executing `mix help pleroma.relay`
### Following a relay
Run `mix pleroma.relay follow RELAY_URL`
### Unfollowing a relay
Run `mix pleroma.relay unfollow RELAY_URL`
