Which issue does this PR close?

Closes #5755

Rationale for this change

I would like the DataFusion documentation to get better. One problem, as described on #5755, is that there are effectively 2 doc sites (the README in the repository as well as the https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/)

While https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/ still needs some significant love, getting more eyes on it will make that more obvious and having a single place to focus documentation effort will improve our efficiency.

And thanks to @martin-g 's work on #5500 the website is not weeks out of date with the github repo ❤️

I plan several more PRs to update the website content

What changes are included in this PR?

  1. Move all content from README to https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion/tree/main/docs
  2. Leave README with a pointer to the main docs

Are these changes tested?

N/A

Are there any user-facing changes?

Hopefully better docs

I changed some of these heading levels so they didn't all appear in the main table of contents on https://arrow.apache.org/datafusion/

- [Databend](https://github.com/datafuselabs/databend) is a complete
database system. Like DataFusion it is also written in Rust and
utilizes the Apache Arrow memory model, but unlike DataFusion it
targets end-users rather than developers of other database systems.

If someone who knew more about Apache Calcite wanted to add a note here that would also be awesome
