Added a link to the API reference (where headers and query strings are documented; click the "detail" button to see). Also added a reference to Swift section of the OpenStack end user guide. This contains some additional details about the API. No attempt was made to reconcile duplicate information. Instead this patch links documents that might otherwise be overlooked. However, I fixed text, originally in a table, that had become garbled in a prior patch. Change-Id: I0910cbeb0c8bffc00e510f35585603e7b7a67790

Welcome to Swift's documentation!
Swift is a highly available, distributed, eventually consistent object/blob store. Organizations can use Swift to store lots of data efficiently, safely, and cheaply.
This documentation is generated by the Sphinx toolkit and lives in the source tree. Additional documentation on Swift and other components of OpenStack can be found on the OpenStack wiki and at http://docs.openstack.org.
