User documentation

Please note: We are painfully aware that user documentation needs updating, restructuring, and some gaps filling. This work has already started - we're currently in the process of moving any key documentation coupled to code from the wiki to the source tree. However, any documentation which applies across all branches/releases should remain in the wiki. See the Trello boards for more information on current sprint work and backlogs.
