Merge #741
741: Docs 2 r=korken89 a=datdenkikniet
Working on the migration guide and other docs
TODO:
- [x] Migration guide
- [x] Hardcoded examples should link to example code that is tested (this was already done, AFAICT)
- [x] Address #699
- [x] Discuss: should we remove references to non-v2, apart from the migration guide and link to the book for v1? (Off-github conclusion: yes)
- [x] RTIC {vs,and} Embassy (important: distinction between embassy runtime & HALs)
- [x] More descriptive docs on how to implement & PR implementations of `Monotonic` to `rtic-monotonics`
