Reorganize the Hurd FAQ in a single place

move all the hurd faq pages to the top-level faq directory;
the faq.mdwn index now uses two simples map of all the subpages
(one for the debian items, and the other for the non-debian items)

TODO: now some of the items would need better titles

+[[!meta title="Why is `/usr' a symbolic link to `.'?"]]
+
+The distinction between `/` and `/usr` has historical reasons.  Back when [[Unix]]
+systems were booted from two tapes, a small root tape and a big user tape.
+Today, we like to use different partitions for these two spaces.  The Hurd
+throws this historical garbage away.  We think that we have found a more
+flexible solution called union filesystems, which allow to create virtual
+filesystems which are the union of several other filesystems.  However, support
+for union filesystems is still in early development.
