Rename doc subdirectories
We like these names better, and they match the PDF document filenames.
admins -> admin
appldev -> appdev
users -> user
and catch up where the names are used elsewhere.
The relay/ directory has been removed, with its contents moved to the
top level in build_this.rst and a new about.rst.
The section headers for kadmind, krb5kdc, sserver, kpasswd, kswitch,
and sclient are misdetected as conflict markers.
