Kenneth Moreland b80b7e2e71 Add VTK-m User's Guide to source
This is a start of moving the VTK-m User's Guide into the VTK-m source.
This is only the start of the process. There are several goals of this
work.

1. Integrate the documentation into the source code better to better
   keep the code up to date.
2. Move the documentation over to Sphinx so that it can be posted online
   and be more easily linked.
3. Incoporate Doxygen into the guide to keep the documentation
   consistent.
4. Build the user guide examples as part of the VTK-m CI to catch
   compatibility changes quickly.
