kustomize website: the alpha of the alpha

Overview

This is just an example overview of what the new kustomize website might look like. It is forked from the docsy exmaple website and heavy based on that.

I'm not a frontend dev but I was mostly successful at creating what I thought would be a good outline. However, I couldn't get rid of that picture of porridge with blueberries on it on the landing page! So ignore that and imagine it's something more nautical.

I put the most effort into the Documentation section. The left-menu bar has the custom structure that is my creation, based on the docsy example, the content of the current kustomize documentation sources and a general vibe of documentation sites I find easy to read.

The top bar is customized with the sections I think make sense to split. However, I have customized nothing else inside the Community, Contribute and Blog sections.
