Add initial documentation for usage, development and introduction

[jagedn]

Use gh-pages to publish an initial version of the documentation to explain the aim, how to use the plugin and so on

Are the dev docs up to date? or do they need some changes to allow testing at this early stage?

[jagedn]

yes, I think dev docs is up to date (I'll review this part ./launch.sh run main.nf -plugins nf-nomad because I was not using it)

My idea about this issue is to create an "user manual" documentation where explain the configuration, steps to up and running a pipeline, etc

Dumping some thoughts here regarding updates to dev-docs

1. Highlight that the minimal Java version needed is Java-21 for building the project correctly.
2. Document the dev testing setup with (i) ./launch.sh for local tests and (ii) using Jorge's nf-plugin-sdk for testing the published JARs

Regarding point-2-ii, I'm currently iterating on that

So here's my plan of action (for a local testing cluster)

• [X] Make a dev release for nf-nomad - v0.0.1 => https://github.com/nextflow-io/nf-nomad/releases/tag/0.0.1
• [x] Setup a baseline nomad job for triggering nextflow-io/hello pipeline within the dev cluster
• [x] Prior to running the job, download and setup the nf-plugin-sdk
• [x] Launch the pipeline on cluster via the nomad-driven NF headjob

@abhi18av , I've created this branch with a minimal, but useless, documentation : https://github.com/nextflow-io/nf-nomad/tree/add-asciidoctor/src/docs/asciidoc

Can you take a look to it and if you think can be useful write down some initial documentation?
