Remove/rename gitlab documentation and devops repos #90

Since documentation and devops named repositories exist on both github and gitlab. And github repositories are more active than the gitlab ones which have not received any activity for ~8 months.

documentation repo is actually moved from gitlab to github. So gitlab one is a stale repo. devops repos on gitlab and github do not share any history, they are different.

Reason for renaming:

  1. It confuses corobo which repo to consider, gitlab or github, while creating an issue if the repository given was documentation or devops

https://gitlab.com/coala/documentation/commit/e7262517 (HEAD of master, Aug 24, 2016) is not in github : https://github.com/coala/documentation/commit/e7262517 . The github and gitlab repos both started with b95263b11, and they are identical up to https://github.com/coala/documentation/commit/891a78a , the second last commit on gitlab.

Thus, I agree that https://gitlab.com/coala/documentation/ should be deleted, as the one extra commit is not worth keeping.

coala/devops on GitLab can definitely be deleted; at its current state it's useless.

Thanks @chauffer @jayvdb we have a green flag, wanna delete those then?

I have deleted devops as it was almost empty with only a few unusable files (no issues, MRs, pipelines, etc).

I have renamed documentation to documentation-old as it does have issues, especially open issues, so the history is worth keeping until someone has time to assess that.
