Documents changes from the brush assets project

Many changes, some noteworthy ones:

  • Merged basic brush page into brush introduction, renamed to "Brushes" -
    Found it confusing to have a section named "Brush" with a rather
    empty "Introduction" page and then a separate "Brushes" section.
  • Split brush management into separate page from brush introduction. Otherwise
    pages get a bit long.
  • There is a split now between tools and brushes, because there is a
    unified "Brush" tool now, and the brushes are separate from the tool
    system.
  • It's not exactly clear where to document things like the properties of a
    brush type now, since the brush type is considered an "Advanced" setting
    that users usually wouldn't look at. Moved it to the documentation of the
    of the bundled default brushes now (Essentials asset library), if we add
    more default brushes using the same brush type, they can link to each other
    for the parameter desciption.
  • Updated the general asset documentation for the limited asset "pushing" to
    asset system files.
  • Added missing asset shelf region sections
  • Removed unnecessary picture of brush cursor. Doesn't seem useful in any way,
    it's basically just a picture of a circle. Instead, this page has a
    screenshot of the asset view now, that I much rather draw attention to. The
    previews of brushes visually explain the working of brushes well.
  • Updated a bunch of images that wouldn't be valid anymore.

Found the current navigation quite confusing. Mostly having a section named
"Brush" with a rather empty "Introduction" page and then a separate "Brushes"
section

Already note that brushes are used as assets here, this is important.
Plus remove unnecessary information about the brush tool, this is
documented sufficiently elsewhere.
