Stephen Finucane 1d281bb70c doc: Create directory structure for docs migration
The spec [1] recommends the following sections:

- install
- contributor
- configuration
- cli
- admin
- user
- reference

Only two of these are useful here:

- user
- reference

Add these and populate them.

os-vif
======
`os-vif` is a library for plugging and unplugging virtual interfaces (VIFs) in
OpenStack. It provides:
- Versioned objects that represent various types of virtual interfaces and
their components
- Base VIF plugin class that supplies a ``plug()`` and ``unplug()`` interface
- Plugins for two networking backends - Open vSwitch and Linux Bridge
`os-vif` is intended to define a common model for representing VIF types in
OpenStack. With the exception of the two included plugins, all plugins for
other networking backends are maintained in separate code repositories.
