[docs] new structure (#21776)
This PR consolidates both #21667 and #21759 (look there for features), but improves on them in the following way:

- [x] we reverted renaming of existing projects `tune`, `rllib`, `train`, `cluster`, `serve`, `raysgd` and `data` so that links won't break. I think my consolidation efforts with the `ray-` prefix were a little overeager in that regard. It's better like this. Only the creation of `ray-core` was a necessity, and some files moved into the `rllib` folder, so that should be relatively benign.
- [x] Additionally, we added Algolia `docsearch`, screenshot below. This is _much_ better than our current search. Caveat: there's a sphinx dependency that needs to be replaced (`sphinx-tabs`) by another, newer one (`sphinx-panels`), as the former prevents loading of the `algolia.js` library. Will follow-up in the next PR (hoping this one doesn't get re-re-re-re-reverted).

# Ray Documentation
Repository for documentation of the Ray project, hosted at [docs.ray.io](https://docs.ray.io).
## Installation
To build the documentation, make sure you have `ray` installed first.
For building the documentation locally install the following dependencies:
```bash
pip install -r requirements-doc.txt
```
## Building the documentation
To compile the documentation and open it locally, run the following command from this directory.
```bash
make html && open _build/html/index.html
```
## Building just one sub-project
Often your changes in documentation just concern one sub-project, such as Tune or Train.
To build just this one sub-project, and ignore the rest (leading to build warnings due to broken references etc.), run the following command:
```shell
DOC_LIB=<project> sphinx-build -b html -d _build/doctrees source _build/html
```
where `<project>` is the name of the sub-project and can be any of the docs projects in the `source/`
directory either called `tune`, `rllib`, `train`, `cluster`, `serve`, `raysgd`, `data` or the ones starting
with `ray-`, e.g. `ray-observability`.
## Announcements and includes
To add new announcements and other messaging to the top or bottom of a documentation page,
check the `_includes` folder first to see if the message you want is already there (like "get help"
or "we're hiring" etc.)
If not, add the template you want and include it accordingly, i.e. with
```markdown
.. include:: /_includes/<my-announcement>
```
This ensures consistent messaging across documentation pages.
## Checking for broken links
To check if there are broken links, run the following (we are currently not running this
in the CI since there are false positives).
```bash
make linkcheck
```
## Running doctests
To run tests for examples shipping with docstrings in Python files, run the following command:
```shell
make doctest
```
