Currently, the documentation website's landing page contains only a table of contents. The introductory material is accessible through the first link in that index. Because the landing page is itself an introduction, it ought to offer some explanation of the project's purpose and structure. Re-use the introductory text found in the project's README.md file since this is slightly more complete than the corresponding text in the "introduction" page. Move other high-level information to the landing page and rename the "introduction" to "testsuite design" in order to better describe its more narrow focus.

Thanks, @sideshowbarker! It's been a week, so I'm going to merge this, now |

This pushes the full table of content below the fold, but I think that's a fair
trade off considering that we'll still have an abbreviated version in the
navigation menu.
