This reverts commit 5e8ff010a1.
This broke all the URLs, we can't have that. (And actually, we probably don't
_want_ to make the change either. It's nicer to have all the pages in one
directory, so one doesn't have to figure out to which collection the page
belongs.)
This documents that explicit `Before=`/`After=` dependencies can be
used to selectively override implicit ordering coming from default
dependencies. That allows for more granular control compared to the
already documented `DefaultDependencies=no` option.
The alternative approach came up in a discussion around the ordering
of `boot-complete.target`, so this also adds an explicit suggestion
in that direction to the "Automatic Boot Assessment" documentation.

I reordered the component list to match chronological order: we first install
an entry, then boot it, then the checks happen, etc. Before it was
ordered by "importance", but that is harder to follow.
The boot-counting file-renaming entry-sorting part that the boot
loader implements is moved to the main document. The second document
describes a specific implementation that is provided through systemd
units.
The sorting algorithm is extended to say that bad entries should
be sorted later.
I also added a note that bad entries should be available for booting.
For some reason, the second document said that it applies only to EFI systems.
AFAIK there are no implementations for non-EFI, but the specification should
work just fine, if somebody were to implement it. So that part is dropped.
Fixes#23345.
Sadly, bootctl doesn't implement sorting of boot entries with counting :((((
But I'm leaving that for another PR.
I have no idea if this is going to cause rendering problems, and it is fairly
hard to check. So let's just merge this, and if it github markdown processor
doesn't like it, revert.
@bertob wants us to be strict here, and only have one "#" header per
markdown file, and use "##" (or "###", …) for all others. Interestingly,
we mostly got this right already, but this fixes a few cases where this
wasn't correct.
It turns out Jekyll (the engine behind GitHub Pages) requires that pages
include a "Front Matter" snippet of YAML at the top for proper rendering.
Omitting it will still render the pages, but including it opens up new
possibilities, such as using a {% for %} loop to generate index.md instead of
requiring a separate script.
I'm hoping this will also fix the issue with some of the pages (notably
CODE_OF_CONDUCT.html) not being available under systemd.io
Tested locally by rendering the website with Jekyll. Before this change, the
*.md files were kept unchanged (so not sure how that even works?!), after this
commit, proper *.html files were generated from it.
