Add a Sphinx directory and my outlines for three varnish documents:

installation, tutorial and reference.

Please feel free to help flesh these out.

See http://sphinx.pocoo.org for more on the tool we are using.

To build html version, go into doc/sphinx and type "make html"
result should end up under the =build subdirectory.
