Lots of documentation updates.
Updated header id generation, anchors, links, and header levels. Added dedicated book page and support data. Removed extra module autocompletion and documentation from Lua module. Removed GPG signing and verification, as everything is built and distributed on GitHub. Removed all release links prior to 10.8 since there is no point in uploading the relevant files to GitHub.

+[Excerpt][]
+
+Textadept is a fast, minimalist, and remarkably extensible cross-platform text
+editor for programmers. This quick reference contains a wealth of knowledge on
+how to script and configure Textadept using the Lua programming language. It
+groups the editor's rich API into a series of tasks in a convenient and
+easy-to-use manner.
+
+This book covers how to:
+
+* Leverage Textadept's important files and folders
+* Adeptly navigate and manipulate text
+* Mark lines and text visually
+* Show interactive lists and call tips
+* Prompt for user input in various ways
+* Spawn asynchronous, interactive child processes
+* Configure colors, themes, and other settings
+* Define lexers for highlighting source code
+* And much more
+
+It serves as the perfect complement to Textadept's comprehensive Manual and
+exhaustive API documentation.
