Gregory Haynes 3eeefefa85 Reorder developer quickstart docs 
The quickstart should be the first bit of developer documentation, not
the last. Also add in a short blurb for the developer docs so we dont
have two doc titles back to back.

Developer Documentation

This documentation explains how to get started with creating your own disk-image-builder elements as well as some high level concepts for element creation.

Quickstart

To get started developing with diskimage-builder, install to a virtualenv:

$ mkdir dib
$ cd dib
$ virtualenv create env
$ source env/bin/activate
$ git clone https://git.openstack.org/openstack/diskimage-builder
$ cd diskimage-builder
$ pip install -e .

You can now simply use disk-image-create to start building images and testing your changes. When you are done editing, use git review to submit changes to the upstream gerrit.
