All this does is convert the version sections into headers. The list
items shouldn't really be indented by two spaces, but it makes no
difference to the rendering and this way we retain authorship history
for the actual changes.

Added performance guidelines for new MRs
## What does this MR do?
This MR adds a set of guides that should be followed by merge request authors.
## Are there points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?
Spelling, grammar, etc
## Why was this MR needed?
There is no set of guidelines one should follow when submitting merge requests. This leads to developers at times disregarding performance. This in turn results in performance specialists having to clean up the mess, or production engineers being woken up in the middle of the night because the database is on fire.
## Does this MR meet the acceptance criteria?
- [x] [Documentation created/updated](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/doc/development/doc_styleguide.md)
- Tests
- [x] All builds are passing
- [x] Conform by the [style guides](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#style-guides)
- [x] Branch has no merge conflicts with `master` (if you do - rebase it please)
- [x] [Squashed related commits together](https://git-scm.com/book/en/Git-Tools-Rewriting-History#Squashing-Commits)

merge requests. These guidelines are put in to place to prevent merge
requests from negatively impacting GitLab performance as much as
possible.

Now that we autoscale runner, we don't need to optimize for their usage
anymore. Abusing of "ci skip", for instance for view changes can lead to
broken specs, so let's just not use it!
