quickstart.rst: grammar fixes

2019-01-12T09:32:29+00:00

Per issue 83, all "harden_verify" code is now deprecated & a noop.

2017-01-29T21:27:43+00:00

will be removed completely in 1.8.

Rationale:
Aside from the arguments in issue 83, performed a timing analysis,
and decided harden_verify framework wasn't going to be easily workable
to prevent a timing attack anyways (see attached admin/plot_verify_timing.py script).

Changes:
* dummy_verify() has been kept around, but now uses .verify() against a dummy hash,
which is guaranteed to have correct timing (though wastes cpu cycles).

* Removed most harden_verify code, treating it as NOOP just like min_verify_time.
  Similarly, removed most documentation references to.

docs: LARGE update to documentation, tutorials added, pages relocated

* moved a bunch of pages into 'docs/narr' narrative subsection.
  added placeholder pages in old locations, to minimize inbound link breakage.

* split history into separate pages, was getting way too long.
  removed toplevel CHANGES file, not feasible under new structure.

* passlib.ifc split into reference & tutorial portions,
  tutorial allowed subsuming a bunch of other hash-usage examples.

* added standard fragments for warning about insecure hashes,
  added them to top of a LOT of hash doc pages.

* updated references, various layout tweaks
