Docs refactor (#480) 
Big docs refactor! Motivation is to make it easier for people to find
resources they are looking for. To accomplish this, there are now three
main sections:

- Getting Started: steps for getting started, walking through most core
functionality
- Modules: these are different modules of functionality that langchain
provides. Each part here has a "getting started", "how to", "key
concepts" and "reference" section (except in a few select cases where it
didnt easily fit).
- Use Cases: this is to separate use cases (like summarization, question
answering, evaluation, etc) from the modules, and provide a different
entry point to the code base.

There is also a full reference section, as well as extra resources
(glossary, gallery, etc)

Key Concepts

Agents

Agents use an LLM to determine which actions to take and in what order. For more detailed information on agents, and different types of agents in LangChain, see this documentation.

Tools

Tools are functions that agents can use to interact with the world. These tools can be generic utilities (e.g. search), other chains, or even other agents. For more detailed information on tools, and different types of tools in LangChain, see this documentation.
