[DOCS] Consistent headings, newlines, wraps (#1293)
I've been running into variations in style in the docs I've edited so far. I've been
including changes for consistency in with other commits but in many cases that makes one
part of one doc more consistent with the rest but less consistent with itself. It seems
like a bit of cleanup may be in order.

This change applies the following conventions:

- Section heading heirarchy:
  #. ``=`` with overline for document title, IOW first heading
  #. ``-``
  #. ``~``
  #. ``"``

- Two newlines before ``-`` sections for readability

- A newline between every section of any level and the first line of text

- Wrap paragraph lines at 88 characters to match Python's Black

I've only applied these changes to those ``*.rst`` files that aren't generated.

In the future, I might suggest another bulk change to match [the Sphinx conventions for
section
headings](https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/basics.html#sections).

[DOCS] Add Architecture section and Quick Start (#1287)
* docs(config): Clarify preset ordering priority

Refs #1276

* docs(architecture): WIP Narrative how it works

Much of this is repetition of the reference docs and some of the changes here should
also be applied here. The goal is to repeat here the parts of the reference docs that
may hang up a user when reading "Getting Started" without sending them off to get lost
in the weeds of the reference docs.

Note that this references a `Quick Start` document which is just an empty placeholder
and is to be written in a subsequent change.

Fixes #1279

* docs(terms): Glossary redundant with architecture

Now that the introduction includes an architectural overview, that section introduces
new users to necessary concepts and associated terminology and makes the terminology
section redundant in that part of the docs.

* docs(quick): Add a rote quick start guide

This is what I came up with when I tried to write instructions requiring as little
understanding as possible. Doing so really did reinforce my impression that this just
shouldn't be done, that significant understanding is required for *any* use of ytdl-sub
and even offering a quick start may be irresponsible. I'm still on the fence, thoughts?

That said, I also think I got some good explanations out of this and a better
understanding of what the next bits of the Getting Started should be. This Quick Start
is currently redundant with other parts of the Getting Started pages. I suspect that
I'll end up repeating and/or reorganizing parts of this Quick Start into the next bits
of the Getting Started. To that end I might argue that this change is a WIP and that
merging should wait. But I could also argue that this is an incremental improvement and
can be merged before that other work. Your call.

* docs(start): Various rST/Sphinx markup issues

[DOCS] Begin complete overhaul of readthedocs (#847)
Readthedocs for ytdl-sub is getting a massive overhaul to both look and read like a modernized app. It is still very-much work-in-progress, stay tuned for more!

Huge thanks to @Svagtlys (aka Momo) for driving this
