We need some basic documentation for the Cynthion hardware.

At minimum we need to have pages that cover the following topics:

It might also be cool to have a section with explicit rules/recommendations for people who want to build their own hardware. (e.g. something like they have in the Glasgow docs: https://glasgow-embedded.org/latest/build.html)

Something that would really help is a block diagram similar to the one we have for HackRF.

Some information about power switching is needed. For starters, the introduction should be updated to say that CONTROL is the primary port for both control and power.
