Marcus Schäfer 2046220c07 Refactor documentation layout and structure
The current design of the documentation does not allow for
continous improvement and development. It's missing a basic
structure and concept for documenting step-by-step workflows
and generic explanations.

kiwi system create
==================
SYNOPSIS
--------
.. code-block:: bash
kiwi [global options] service <command> [<args>]
kiwi system create -h | --help
kiwi system create --root=<directory> --target-dir=<directory>
kiwi system create help
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Create an image from a previously prepared image root directory.
The kiwi create call is usually issued after a kiwi prepare command
and builds the requested image type in the specified target directory
OPTIONS
-------
--root=<directory>
Path to the image root directory. This directory is usually created
by the kiwi prepare command. If a directory is used which was not
created by kiwi's prepare command, it's important to know that kiwi
stores image build metadata below the image/ directory which needs
to be present in order to let the create command operate correctly.
--target-dir=<directory>
Path to store the build results.
