This updates the governance documentation to reflect the changes as a result of RFC 3392. This also replaces mentions of the core team with the leadership council. There are several commits which should explain each change. The intent here is for the official governance documentation lives here as a permanent home.

Closes #694
Closes rust-lang/leadership-council#14

The redirects are relative to the current page, so they need `/` to
anchor to the root of the site.
In preparation to remove the core chapter.
Followup will rework some of the text to remove the RFC aspects of it.
This content is moved as-is without modification.
The intent is to help organize and manage the chapter size.
This removes the RFC wording from the council policy to make it stand on
its own, and not be framed as a proposal.
These docs are very outdated and contains some misleading information.
There are important things to resurrect at some point, which is
something the Council should take on:

* Definition of teams, and the structure of the Project in general:
  rust-lang/leadership-council#33
* Team charters, defining what each team's mission and responsibilities
  are: rust-lang/leadership-council#44
* Suggestions on moderation team processes should follow up with either
  the Council or https://github.com/rust-lang/moderation-team
* Suggested decision making processes for teams:
  rust-lang/leadership-council#45
  (and rust-lang/leadership-council#23 to some
  degree).
This will generally not be kept up-to-date, and this information
can be found elsewhere like the GitHub repo listing or the
https://www.rust-lang.org/governance pages. As part of
rust-lang/leadership-council#44
I'd also like to better surface this kind of information on the Forge.
This updates documentation to point to the leadership council.
I'm not entirely certain what the RFC authors' intent was with this
style, but my guess was that it was because it was proposing a new term.
Since the team is now a real team, and this document is no longer being
framed as a proposal, this removes it and uses a consistent style.

@rylev Just checking if there is anything else you'd like to see before merging this or if it is waiting on anything?

@ehuss nope - I was expecting you to merge it, but I can if you want me to.

I think you are the only one with permission to merge things here (and Mark, but I'm not really clear who else has access).

We should discuss giving merge permissions at least to the librarians committee of the Council.
