Mentat documentation website using Jekyll (#754)
Steps to building docs locally:

    1. Install Jekyll
    2. cd docs
    3. bundle exec jekyll serve --incremental
    4. open local docs site at http://127.0.0.1:4000/


* basic Jekyll site

* Add docs to documentation site

* Update javadoc to allow for error free builds

* Remove docs for rust dependencies

* Better display examples, about and contributing documentation for Mentat

* Version docs
