[Openstack-operators] Ops Community Documentation - first anchor point

You will want to follow the steps of the "project creators' guide"
[1].  Not all of them apply, because this is a docs repo and not a
code project repo. Let me know if you have questions about which
pieces do or do not apply as you go along, and we can work on
improving that document as well.

The openstack/tripleo-docs repo looks like it has a setup similar
to the one you'll be creating, so when you get to the steps about
setting up jobs you can probably copy what they have.

After the session today it occurred to me that there is one
governance-related thing that we would need to do in order to publish
this content to docs.openstack.org. Right now we have a policy that
only official teams can do that. I think if the guide is owned by
a SIG or other group chartered either by the TC or UC we can make
that work. We can do quite a lot of the setup work while we figure
that out, though, so don't lose momentum in the mean time.
