This PR introduces a documentation page for `patronictl` application.
We adopted a top-down approach when writing this document. We start by describing the outer most parts, and then keep writing new sections that specialize the knowledge.
We basically added a section called `patronictl` to the left menu. Inside that section we created a page with this structure:
- `patronictl`: describes what it is
- `Configuraiton`: how to configure `patronictl`
- `Usage`: how to use the CLI. Inside this section, there are subsections for each of the subcommands exposed by `patronictl`, and each of them are described using the following subsubsections:
- `Synopsis`: syntax of the command and its positional and optional arguments
- `Description`: a description of what the command does
- `Parameters`: a detailed description of the arguments and how to use them
- `Examples`: one or more examples of execution of the command
References: PAT-200.

- Be more precise in the log messages
- Allow to failover to an async candidate in sync mode
- Check if candidate is the same as the leader specified in api
- Fix and extend some tests

If replication slots are enabled Patroni automatically creates them for any cluster member that is supposed to stream from a given node and for any permanent slot defined in the global configuration. If the member disappears from the DCS Patroni automatically removes the replication slot for it. The same behavior was in the maintenance mode (pause).
This commit disables removal of any replication slots that don't match Patroni's expectations in pause.
Close https://github.com/zalando/patroni/issues/2314
- fix the false claim that Patroni in a paused mode may promote a master.
- merge all allowed API actions together.
- describe the payload of the API pause request as JSON.
