docs: Bring some order to filesystem documentation Documentation/filesystems is, like much of the rest of the kernel's documentation, a jumble of unorganized information. Split the documentation into categories and try to bring some order to the top-level index.rst files. No text changes other than a few section-introductory blurbs; this is all just moving stuff around.

================
splice and pipes
================
splice API
==========
splice is a method for moving blocks of data around inside the kernel,
without continually transferring them between the kernel and user space.
.. kernel-doc:: fs/splice.c
pipes API
=========
Pipe interfaces are all for in-kernel (builtin image) use. They are not
exported for use by modules.
.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/pipe_fs_i.h
:internal:
.. kernel-doc:: fs/pipe.c
