yuvipanda b9331dbd57 Reformat index.rst to get linkable sections
Currently, the sections in index.rst are using ** for bold,
rather than true section headers. This prevents them from being
linkable. Since we'd like to link to the 'contributing' section
from CONTRIBUTING.md, we change this by moving everything to
section headers. We also move to the toctree directive, since
it keeps the bullets aligned properly (they were hanging if
we used simple * markers)

This also replaces CONTRIBUTING.md content with a link to
the docs.

JupyterHub
==========
`JupyterHub`_, a multi-user **Hub**, spawns, manages, and proxies multiple
instances of the single-user `Jupyter notebook`_ server.
JupyterHub can be used to serve notebooks to a class of students, a corporate
data science group, or a scientific research group.

Three subsystems make up JupyterHub:
* a multi-user **Hub** (tornado process)
* a **configurable http proxy** (node-http-proxy)
* multiple **single-user Jupyter notebook servers** (Python/IPython/tornado)
JupyterHub performs the following functions:
- The Hub launches a proxy
- The proxy forwards all requests to the Hub by default
- The Hub handles user login and spawns single-user servers on demand
- The Hub configures the proxy to forward URL prefixes to the single-user
notebook servers
For convenient administration of the Hub, its users, and services,
JupyterHub also provides a `REST API`_.
The JupyterHub team and Project Jupyter value our community, and JupyterHub
follows the Jupyter [Community Guides](https://jupyter.readthedocs.io/en/latest/community/content-community.html).

Distributions
-------------
A JupyterHub **distribution** is tailored towards a particular set of
use cases. These are generally easier to set up than setting up
JupyterHub from scratch, assuming they fit your use case.
The two popular ones are:
* `Zero to JupyterHub on Kubernetes <http://z2jh.jupyter.org>`_, for
running JupyterHub on top of `Kubernetes <https://k8s.io>`_. This
can scale to large number of machines & users.
* `The Littlest JupyterHub <http://tljh.jupyter.org>`_, for an easy
to set up & run JupyterHub supporting 1-100 users on a single machine.
