* Add documentation for configuring Packer for HCP Packer
This change works to document the two configuration options for setting
up Packer to publish build artifacts to an active HCP Packer registry.
Currently the HashiCorp Cloud Platform documents the process for
configuring Packer via a HCL template, which is the preferred route.
This documentation focuses more on the use of environment variables for
configuring Packer for HCP Packer, which is necessary for legacy JSON
template users looking to publish to HCP Packer.
In light of the new HCP Packer documentation page we've opted for a shorter
version of the HCP Packer introduction section.
* Applying the first round of suggestions to tighten up the documentation.
* Move HCP Packer side bar to top
* Move intro into docs
* Add redirects for intro pages

With the move to Hashidocs, the version picker is within the text area
for the documentation being displayed. This negatively interacts with
the Note on top, as it obstructs part of the text.
To circumvent this problem, we move the Note after the title/intro.

The comment was mentioning the name of an iteration Id, which is
conflicting.
This commit rephrases the comment to directly specify the ID of the
iteration.
In addition to the current way of specifying an image based on an
iteration on HCP Packer, which requires first declaring an iteration,
and then referencing it from the image to build, we add the capacity of
specifying a channel.
This alternative will get the iteration linked to the channel, and is
essentially a more convenient way to get an image's metadata from HCP
Packer.
This commit is essentially a backport from the Terraform HCP provider,
for consistency between the two tools.
