For #4119.

Full rewrite of the most obviously user-facing docs with a focus on how people mostly use build_runner today: build_runner, build, build_test. Added a list of popular builders based mostly on download stats from pub.dev.

Tweaks/cleanup but not a rewrite of docs that are not so user-facing: build_config, build_web_compilers.

Removed most other docs and FAQs, a lot of it is out of date and refers to niche uses of build_runner. Moved a few FAQ entries related to build_config into the build_config doc.

Mentioning specific packages could seem like an endorsement and might not be what we want?
Maybe it would be better if we restrict it to packages we control and/or already endorse somehow?

Thanks! I added a column listing endorsements and a note that we don't endorse if not mentioned, how does that look to you please?
