Add doc for F2F trading

[ManfredKarrer]

For the upcoming release (prob. 20. Aug.) we need an entry in the docs page for the rules and description for F2F trade.
We discussed a bit here: bisq-network/bisq#1607

@m52go Do you have time to work on that? We can start with a minimal version and update later to a more extended version (e.g. recommendations like on LocalBitcoins)

This one's on my list, but in that thread it was suggested that we integrate F2F Rules into the overall Rules doc, which hasn't been written yet. So it's a big job...that I can't do before August 20.

Unless it would be okay to just do F2F for now and put placeholders for everything else--then I could possibly get something done soon.

+1. Placeholders can be link to existing FAQ entries.

Thanks @cbeams. Per your comment here, are there any other places where Rules are documented aside from the FAQs? I'm sure some stuff is scattered through reddit/forum posts, which I can search for as needed.

[cbeams]

My bad. There actually are no FAQ sections that deal with trading and arbitration rules.

In fact, to my knowledge, there is no place we capture them except here:

https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-desktop/wiki/3.4.-Arbitration-system

@ManfredKarrer please correct me if I'm wrong.

So you can:

• carry over these few rules from the wiki into a general section of a new trading-rules.adoc that will fill in the Trading and Arbitration Rules placeholder on index.adoc
• remove the entries from the wiki and link to the new doc (when it's published)
• Add a #f2f-trading section to the trading-rules.adoc file that goes into whatever detail necessary.

The whole link to F2F trading rules would read as follows:

https://docs.bisq.network/trading-rules.html#f2f-trading

And as an aside, it would be good to do these issues in the bisq-docs repository in the future, instead of here in the bisq-website repository.

I am also not aware of another place of rules. Maybe the user agreement in the app is relevant as well.

@m52go We will likely release today (in a few hours). Could you add some PR for a preliminary text (placeholder) in case you have not completed the text? We can update then the next days, just to have not a "page not found"...

[m52go]

I created this issue to discuss the whole Rules doc, F2F included. Moving forward let's move all discussion related to that doc over there.
