Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 8e3fee33af Revert "docs: use collections to structure the data"
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.)

# What Settings Are Currently Available For Transient Units?
Our intention is to make all settings that are available as unit file settings
also available for transient units, through the D-Bus API. At the moment,
device, swap, and target units are not supported at all as transient units, but
others are pretty well supported.
The lists below contain all settings currently available in unit files. The
ones currently available in transient units are prefixed with `✓`.
## Generic Unit Settings
Most generic unit settings are available for transient units.
