Refactor the upgrading from source docsdocs/refactor-update-guides

Instead of requiring one separate document for every version (which is
created by release managers), we now use a single document for both
Community Edition and Enterprise Edition. This allows developers to add
guidelines right away, instead of release managers having to determine
what to add.

Version specific upgrading instructions are placed in a separate
section. This prevents instructions from lingering around for many
versions should a developer forget to remove them. This also ensures
that all instructions are kept in a single place, instead of being
spread across different documents.

A minor downside is that CE and EE guidelines now live in the same
document, which could cause merge conflicts. Since we are working
towards a single codebase, this should only be an issue until we merge
the codebases together; something we expect to do in the coming months.

This commit also removes all old upgrading instructions, but these can
still be accessed using Git branch specific URLs (included in the
updating README).

-# From 7.8 to 7.9
-
-### 0. Stop server
-
-    sudo service gitlab stop
-
-### 1. Backup
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:create RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-
-### 2. Get latest code
-
-```bash
-sudo -u git -H git fetch --all
-sudo -u git -H git checkout -- db/schema.rb # local changes will be restored automatically
-```
-
-For GitLab Community Edition:
-
-```bash
-sudo -u git -H git checkout 7-9-stable
-```
-
-OR
-
-For GitLab Enterprise Edition:
-
-```bash
-sudo -u git -H git checkout 7-9-stable-ee
-```
-
-### 3. Update gitlab-shell
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab-shell
-sudo -u git -H git fetch
-sudo -u git -H git checkout v2.6.0
-```
-
-### 4. Install libs, migrations, etc.
-
-Please refer to the [Node.js setup documentation](https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/installing-node.js-via-package-manager#debian-and-ubuntu-based-linux-distributions) if you aren't running default GitLab server setup.
-
-```bash
-sudo apt-get install nodejs
-
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-
-# MySQL installations (note: the line below states '--without ... postgres')
-sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test postgres --deployment
-
-# PostgreSQL installations (note: the line below states '--without ... mysql')
-sudo -u git -H bundle install --without development test mysql --deployment
-
-# Run database migrations
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake db:migrate RAILS_ENV=production
-
-# Clean up assets and cache
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake assets:clean assets:precompile cache:clear RAILS_ENV=production
-
-# Update init.d script
-sudo cp lib/support/init.d/gitlab /etc/init.d/gitlab
-```
-
-### 5. Update config files
-
-#### New configuration options for `gitlab.yml`
-
-There are new configuration options available for [`gitlab.yml`][yaml]. View them with the command below and apply them to your current `gitlab.yml`.
-
-```
-git diff origin/7-8-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example origin/7-9-stable:config/gitlab.yml.example
-```
-
-#### Change Nginx settings
-
-- HTTP setups: Make `/etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab` the same as [`lib/support/nginx/gitlab`][nginx] but with your settings.
-- HTTPS setups: Make `/etc/nginx/sites-available/gitlab-ssl` the same as [`lib/support/nginx/gitlab-ssl`][nginx-ssl] but with your settings.
-- A new `location /uploads/` section has been added that needs to have the same content as the existing `location @gitlab` section.
-
-#### Set up time zone (optional)
-
-Consider setting the time zone in `gitlab.yml` otherwise GitLab will default to UTC. If you set a time zone previously in [`application.rb`][app] (unlikely), unset it.
-
-### 6. Start application
-
-    sudo service gitlab start
-    sudo service nginx restart
-
-### 7. Check application status
-
-Check if GitLab and its environment are configured correctly:
-
-    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:env:info RAILS_ENV=production
-
-To make sure you didn't miss anything run a more thorough check with:
-
-    sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:check RAILS_ENV=production
-
-If all items are green, then congratulations upgrade is complete!
-
-### 8. GitHub settings (if applicable)
-
-If you are using GitHub as an OAuth provider for authentication, you should change the callback URL so that it
-only contains a root URL (ex. `https://gitlab.example.com/`)
-
-## Things went south? Revert to previous version (7.8)
-
-### 1. Revert the code to the previous version
-Follow the [upgrade guide from 7.7 to 7.8](7.7-to-7.8.md), except for the database migration
-(The backup is already migrated to the previous version)
-
-### 2. Restore from the backup:
-
-```bash
-cd /home/git/gitlab
-sudo -u git -H bundle exec rake gitlab:backup:restore RAILS_ENV=production
-```
-If you have more than one backup *.tar file(s) please add `BACKUP=timestamp_of_backup` to the command above.
