Split installation instructions into platform specific pages

      A user building the C driver from source should not need to look at the instructions for other platforms. I'm thinking of the following layout:

      • Installing
        • Supported Platforms
        • Install libmongoc with a Package Manager
        • Install libbson with a Package Manager

      And have that top-level installation page link to the platform specific pages:

      • Building on Unix
      • Building on macOS
      • Building on Windows with Visual Studio
      • Building on Windows with MinGW
      • Advanced Installation Options
        • Additional Options for Integrators

      And split the libbson-only instructions into libbson pages. We can reduce duplication with includes. But I think this will make the first touch with libmongoc/libbson better.
