Ravind Kumar c783e10594 DOCS-492: Container Platform Docs
This commit also generally cleans up the Installation docs and uses /includes/<platform>/steps-*.rst as a pattern for storing platform-specific tutorials within a single root URL.

Finally, due to API rate limits, this commit adds some Makefile magic to allow skipping of sync'ing dependencies. Pass `make BUILD_DEPENDENCIES=FALSE <platform>` to skip building any deps and use what is already in the branch.

MinIO is a software-defined high performance distributed object storage server.
You can run MinIO on consumer or enterprise-grade hardware and a variety of operating systems and architectures.
MinIO supports three deployment topologies:
Single-Node Single-Drive (SNSD or "Standalone")
A single MinIO server with a single storage volume or folder.
|SNSD| deployment provides failover protections. Drive-level reliability and failover depends on the underlying storage volume.
|SNSD| deployments are best suited for evaluation and initial development of applications using MinIO for object storage.
|SNSD| deployments implement a zero-parity erasure coding backend and include support for the following erasure-coding dependent features:
- :ref:`Versioning <minio-bucket-versioning>`
- :ref:`Object Locking / Retention <minio-object-retention>`
Single-Node Multi-Drive (SNMD or "Standalone Multi-Drive")
A single MinIO server with four or more storage volumes.
|SNMD| deployments provide drive-level reliability and failover only.
Multi-Node Multi-Drive (MNMD or "Distributed")
Multiple MinIO servers with at least four drives across all servers.
The distributed |MNMD| topology supports production-grade object storage with drive and node-level availability and resiliency.
This documentation provides instructions for |SNSD| and |SNMD| for supporting local development and evaluation of MinIO on a single host machine. For |MNMD| deployments, use the MinIO Kubernetes Operator to deploy and manage MinIO tenants in a containerized and orchestrated environment.

Platform Support
----------------
MinIO provides container images at the following repositories:
- https://hub.docker.com/r/minio/minio
- https://quay.io/repository/minio/minio?tab=info
Use of MinIO images from any other repository, host, or organization is at your own risk.
The :ref:`Single-Node Single-Drive <minio-snsd>` and :ref:`Single-Node Multi-Drive <minio-snmd>` tutorials provide instructions for the `Docker <https://www.docker.com/>`__ and :podman-docs:`Podman <>` container managers.
