Documentation: Chapter structure & header cleanup
Most everything was a top level chapter - this tries to impose some structure. It also moves the "finding the device" section closer to where it should be in the logical flow. This also made the header more "asciidoc compliant" and added the other significant authors to the list. Signed-off-by: Dirk Hohndel <dirk@hohndel.org>
