docs: create config/, devel/ and spin/ subdirectories

Developer documentation should be its own manual.  As a start, move all
developer-oriented files to a separate directory.

Also move non-text files to their own directories: docs/config/ for
QEMU -readconfig input, and docs/spin/ for formal models to be used
with the SPIN model checker.

+# q35 - VirtIO guest (graphical console)
+# =========================================================
+#
+# Usage:
+#
+#   $ qemu-system-x86_64 \
+#     -nodefaults \
+#     -readconfig q35-virtio-graphical.cfg
+#
+# You will probably need to tweak the lines marked as
+# CHANGE ME before being able to use this configuration!
+#
+# The guest will have a selection of VirtIO devices
+# tailored towards optimal performance with modern guests,
+# and will be accessed through a graphical console.
+#
+# ---------------------------------------------------------
+#
+# Using -nodefaults is required to have full control over
+# the virtual hardware: when it's specified, QEMU will
+# populate the board with only the builtin peripherals
+# plus a small selection of core PCI devices and
+# controllers; the user will then have to explicitly add
+# further devices.
+#
+# The core PCI devices show up in the guest as:
+#
+#   00:00.0 Host bridge
+#   00:1f.0 ISA bridge / LPC
+#   00:1f.2 SATA (AHCI) controller
+#   00:1f.3 SMBus controller
+#
+# This configuration file adds a number of other useful
+# devices, more specifically:
+#
+#   00:01.0 VGA compatible controller
+#   00:1b.0 Audio device
+#   00.1c.* PCI bridge (PCI Express Root Ports)
+#   01:00.0 SCSI storage controller
+#   02:00.0 Ethernet controller
+#   03:00.0 USB controller
+#
+# More information about these devices is available below.
+
+
+# Machine options
+# =========================================================
+#
+# We use the q35 machine type and enable KVM acceleration
+# for better performance.
+#
+# Using less than 1 GiB of memory is probably not going to
+# yield good performance in the guest, and might even lead
+# to obscure boot issues in some cases.
