Create dedicated page for rails console

Ben Prescott_ requested to merge docs-bprescott-20200722-rcons into master

What does this MR do?

'Run this on the rails console' is used extensively in our docs.

There needs to be single place where 'starting a rails console' is documented, as the procedure for Omnibus, Source, Kubernetes and Docker all different slightly.

This was attempted before. However

  • An audit of the troubleshooting docs identified a second single source of truth!
  • Five months on, it's clearer to me that our docs refer to the rails console a fair amount.
  • Its own page, with an entry in the side menu, makes it findable in its own right.

step 1

This MR starts by proposing a dedicated page within Administration/Operations.

If this looks ok, I'll then

For this iteration, the kubernetes content will stay where it is, and the docker content doesn't, I think, exist anywhere yet.
