Revamping the FlatBuffers docs.

Adding an API reference for the supported languages.

General docs cleanup, including a new `tutorial` section that
supports all of the supported languages.

Added samples for each supported language to mirror the new
tutorial page.

Cleaned up all the links by making them `@ref` style links,
instead of referencing the names of the generated `.html` files.

Removed all generated files that were unnecessarily committed.

Also fixed the C# tests (two were failing due to a missing file).

Bug: b/25801305

Tested: Tested all samples on Ubuntu, Mac, and Android. Docs were
generated using doxygen and viewed on Chrome.

## Prerequisites
To generate the docs for FlatBuffers from the source files, you
will first need to install two programs.
1. You will need to install `doxygen`. See
[Download Doxygen](http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html).
2. You will need to install `doxypypy` to format python comments appropriately.
Install it from [here](https://github.com/Feneric/doxypypy).
*Note: You will need both `doxygen` and `doxypypy` to be in your
[PATH](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PATH_(variable)) environment variable.*
After you have both of those files installed and in your path, you need to
set up the `py_filter` to invoke `doxypypy` from `doxygen`.
Follow the steps
[here](https://github.com/Feneric/doxypypy#invoking-doxypypy-from-doxygen).
## Generating Docs
Run the following commands to generate the docs:
`cd flatbuffers/docs/source`
`doxygen`
The output is placed in `flatbuffers/docs/html`.
*Note: The Go API Reference code must be generated ahead of time. For
instructions on how to regenerated this file, please read the comments
in `GoApi.md`.*
