This PR cleans up the monolithic README by breaking it into a set
navigable pages under docs/ (install, getting started, configuration,
authentication, sandboxing and approvals, platform details, FAQ, ZDR,
contributing, license). The top‑level README is now more concise and
intuitive, (with corrected screenshots).
It also consolidates overlapping content from codex-rs/README.md into
the top‑level docs and updates links accordingly. The codex-rs README
remains in place for now as a pointer and for continuity.
Finally, added an extensive config reference table at the bottom of
docs/config.md.

This improves the release process by introducing
`scripts/publish_to_npm.py` to automate publishing to npm (modulo the
human 2fac step).
As part of this, it updates `.github/workflows/rust-release.yml` to
create the artifact for npm using `npm pack`.
And finally, while it is long overdue, this memorializes the release
process in `docs/release_management.md`.
This introduces a Python script (written by Codex!) to verify that the
table of contents in the root `README.md` matches the headings. Like
`scripts/asciicheck.py` in https://github.com/openai/codex/pull/513, it
reports differences by default (and exits non-zero if there are any) and
also has a `--fix` option to synchronize the ToC with the headings.
This will be enforced by CI and the changes to `README.md` in this PR
were generated by the script, so you can see that our ToC was missing
some entries prior to this PR.
This all started because I was going to write a script to autogenerate
the Table of Contents in the root `README.md`, but I noticed that the
`href` for the "Why Codex?" heading was `#whycodex` instead of
`#why-codex`. This piqued my curiosity and it turned out that the space
in "Why Codex?" was not an ASCII space but **U+00A0**, a non-breaking
space, and so GitHub ignored it when generating the `href` for the
heading.
This also meant that when I did a text search for `why codex` in the
`README.md` in VS Code, the "Why Codex" heading did not match because of
the presence of **U+00A0**.
In short, these types of Unicode characters seem like a hazard, so I
decided to introduce this script to flag them, and if desired, to
replace them with "good enough" ASCII equivalents. For now, this only
applies to the root `README.md` file, but I think we should ultimately
apply this across our source code, as well, as we seem to have quite a
lot of non-ASCII Unicode and it's probably going to cause `rg` to miss
things.
Contributions of this PR:
* `./scripts/asciicheck.py`, which takes a list of filepaths and returns
non-zero if any of them contain non-ASCII characters. (Currently, there
is one exception for ✨ aka **U+2728**, though I would like to default to
an empty allowlist and then require all exceptions to be specified as
flags.)
* A `--fix` option that will attempt to rewrite files with violations
using a equivalents from a hardcoded substitution list.
* An update to `ci.yml` to verify `./scripts/asciicheck.py README.md`
succeeds.
* A cleanup of `README.md` using the `--fix` option as well as some
editorial decisions on my part.
* I tried to update the `href`s in the Table of Contents to reflect the
changes in the heading titles. (TIL that if a heading has a character
like `&` surrounded by spaces, it becomes `--` in the generated `href`.)
