import content from cli-reference in openstack-manuals
This patch is part of the great doc migration from
openstack-manuals to the individual repos. The
changes are based on the spec here:
https://specs.openstack.org/openstack/docs-specs/specs/pike/os-manuals-migration.html
The cinder.rst file needs to be renamed index.rst so
that the template that is being used by OpenStack
manuals team will magically find the documentation.
