b062b76740 Magic Folder design doc: rename "parent DMD" to "collective directory", and don't assume it is mutable.
(An immutable collective directory could be interesting for some use cases, and is no more difficult to support.)

0bebbe3290 fix warnings from rst2html
Apparently the in-line link syntax with "<>" in them causes these warnings. I
don't know why. I changed them all to a slightly more verbose syntax.

(https://github.com/tahoe-lafs/tahoe-lafs/pull/67#commitcomment-4561370), I
moved the links to the end of each section.

Add ".. -*- coding: utf-8-with-signature -*-" to the first line of each .rst
file. This tells emacs to treat the file contents as utf-8, and also to prepend
a so-called utf-8 "bom" marker at the beginning of the file. This patch also
prepends those markers to each of those files.

4e0a8d8d4f fix small issues in formatting
* fix warning from "rst2html --verbose" by not using the in-line hyperlink
  syntax. The warning said::

    known_issues.rst:261: (INFO/1) Hyperlink target "google chart api" is not referenced.

* remove dead code (no-longer-referenced link), thus fixing another warning

* change links to relative files to be just $FILENAME instead of
  file:$FILENAME, which I think will fix the problem of broken links on the
  trac and github, e.g. the link in
  https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/known_issues.rst ,
  which ought to go to
  https://tahoe-lafs.org/trac/tahoe-lafs/browser/trunk/docs/cautions.rst , but
  instead goes to file:///cautions.rst

0a89b738bc Make introducer.furl unguessable. Closes #1802.
Previously, Introducers always used a swissnum of "introducer", so
anyone who could learn the (public) tubid of the introducer would be
able to connect to and use it. This changes new Introducers to use the
same randomly-generated swissnum as clients and storage servers do, so
that you absolutely must learn the introducer.furl from someone who
knows it already before you can connect.

This change also moves the location of the file that stores
introducer.furl from BASEDIR/introducer.furl to
BASEDIR/private/introducer.furl, since that's where we keep the private
things. The first time an introducer is started with the new code, it
will move any existing BASEDIR/introducer.furl into the new place.

Note that this will not change the FURL of existing introducers: it will
only affect newly created ones. When you change an introducer's FURL,
you must also update all of the nodes (clients and storage servers)
which connect to it, so upgrading it to an unguessable one isn't
something we should do automatically.

e58a01270b Change the arbitrary URI support from implied to explicit
The move webapi function now takes a target_type argument which lets it
know whether the target is a subdirectory name or URI. This is an
improvement over the old system in which the move handler tried to guess
whether the target was a name or a URI. Also fixed a little docs
copypaste problem and tweaked some line wrapping.
