This PR is related to https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-docs/issues/4124 and https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-docs/issues/4123. **New Enterprise Upgrade Guide from 2021.1 to 2022.2** I've added the upgrade guide for ScyllaDB Enterprise image. In consists of 3 files: /upgrade/_common/upgrade-guide-v2022-ubuntu-and-debian-p1.rst upgrade/_common/upgrade-image.rst /upgrade/_common/upgrade-guide-v2022-ubuntu-and-debian-p2.rst **Modified Enterprise Upgrade Guides 2021.1 to 2022.2** I've modified the existing guides for Ubuntu and Debian to use the same files as above, but exclude the image-related information: /upgrade/_common/upgrade-guide-v2022-ubuntu-and-debian-p1.rst + /upgrade/_common/upgrade-guide-v2022-ubuntu-and-debian-p2.rst = /upgrade/_common/upgrade-guide-v2022-ubuntu-and-debian.rst To make things simpler and remove duplication, I've replaced the guides for Ubuntu 18 and 20 with a generic Ubuntu guide. **Modified Enterprise Upgrade Guides from 4.6 to 5.0** These guides included a bug: they included the image-related information (about updating OS packages), because a file that includes that information was included by mistake. What's worse, it was duplicated. After the includes were removed, image-related information is no longer included in the Ubuntu and Debian guides (this fixes https://github.com/scylladb/scylla-docs/issues/4123). I've modified the index file to be in sync with the updates. Closes #11285 * github.com:scylladb/scylladb: doc: reorganize the content to list the recommended way of upgrading the image first doc: update the image upgrade guide for ScyllaDB image to include the location of the manifest file doc: fix the upgrade guides for Ubuntu and Debian by removing image-related information doc: update the guides for Ubuntu and Debian to remove image information and the OS version number doc: add the upgrade guide for ScyllaDB image from 2021.1 to 2022.1

Building User Documentation
Prerequisites
- Python 3. Check your version with
$ python --version.
Mac OS X
You must have a working Homebrew in order to install the needed tools.
You also need the standard utility make.
Check if you have these two items with the following commands:
brew help
make -h
Linux Distributions
Building the user docs should work out of the box on most Linux distributions.
Windows
Use "Bash on Ubuntu on Windows" for the same tools and capabilities as on Linux distributions.
Building the Docs
- Run
make previewto build the documentation. - Preview the built documentation locally at http://127.0.0.1:5500/.
Cleanup

make pristine
