This PR adds a link to the "Basic Workflow" section of the Developer Guide on the landing page of docs.ceph.com. This PR is meant to improve the documentation for developers new to Ceph and to guide them to instructions that will allow them to become full-fledged contributors to the Ceph project as quickly as possible. The "Basic Workflow" page of the Developer Guide contains information that answers almost all of the questions that I had about contributing to the Ceph project when I was new to it, and I am finally acting on my long-held conviction that the "Basic Workflow" page of the Developer Guide should have a more prominent position in the documentation suite than it has had.
