Update the getting started guide, prereqs, architecture, and other basic docs with more concise wording and removed some obsolete information. Some links are removed so they don't distract the user from reading the critical information that we are conveying in the rook docs. Signed-off-by: travisn <tnielsen@redhat.com>

Building Rook
Rook is composed of a golang project and can be built directly with standard golang tools,
and storage software (like Ceph) that are built inside containers. We currently support
these platforms for building:
- Linux: most modern distributions should work although most testing has been done on Ubuntu
- Mac: macOS 10.6+ is supported
Build Requirements
Recommend 2+ cores, 8+ GB of memory and 128GB of SSD. Inside your build environment (Docker for Mac or a VM), 2+ GB memory is also recommended.
The following tools are need on the host:
- curl
- docker (1.12+) or Docker for Mac (17+)
- git
- make
- golang
- helm
Build
You can build the Rook binaries and all container images for the host platform by simply running the
command below. Building in parallel with the -j option is recommended.
make -j4 build
Run make help for more options.
CI Workflow
Every PR and every merge to master triggers the CI process in GitHub actions. On every commit to PR and master the CI will build, run unit tests, and run integration tests. If the build is for master or a release, the build will also be published to dockerhub.com.
Building for other platforms
You can also run the build for all supported platforms:
make -j4 build.all
