Gud Boi e8f636ddbb Port docs off `run_in_actor` + `Portal.wait_for_result`
The 8-page docs sweep of the #477 removal, ahead of the API's
excision,

- `start/quickstart.rst`: the first-actor-tree walkthrough now
  narrates the (migrated) `to_actor.run()` example — no portal
  in hand until the daemon section introduces `start_actor()`.
- `guide/spawning.rst`: the one-shot section becomes
  `to_actor.run()` (blocking call, placement opts, "built on the
  primitives" note); lifetime/teardown rules update — one-shots
  never make it to nursery exit since each is reaped inside its
  own call.
- `guide/rpc.rst`: the `wait_for_result()` section (an API that
  dies with the reap cluster, incl. the `NoResult` sentinel)
  becomes a `to_actor.run()` one-shot section.
- `api/core.rst`: drop `run_in_actor`/`wait_for_result` from the
  autodoc member lists, drop the `Portal.result()` deprecation
  note, add a "One-shot task actors" `tractor.to_actor.run`
  autodoc section.
- `guide/{asyncio,context,cancellation,parallelism}.rst`:
  mention swaps to the successor API.

Gate: `make -C docs html` builds clean; `to_actor.run` autodoc
renders in `api/core.html`.

Gud Boi a849161fa5 Clarify `to_actor.run()` ownership
The guides described every placement as spawn-run-reap and omitted
the trampoline allowlist required when reusing an existing actor.

- distinguish call-owned children from caller-owned portal actors
- document stable module-global target addresses and allowlists
- add the #477 feature news fragment

Gud Boi 40d2d9942e Showcase `to_actor.run()` across docs
The rendered guides and executable examples still taught the legacy
`ActorNursery.run_in_actor()` result-portal model even though #481
adds its blocking, linked-context replacement.

Deats,
- migrate one-shots to direct results through `to_actor.run()`
- preserve named target inputs with `functools.partial()`
- use daemon actors where reciprocal dialogs need longer lifetimes
- link the new API from core, asyncio and clustering references
- retain only explicit legacy/removal notes

Gud Boi bbb41b69c5 Write the big boi docs content tree
Replace the ancient `docs/index.rst` (still teaching
`tractor.run()`, `@stream` + arbiters..) with a full ~32 page tree
teaching ONLY the current api (`.wait_for_result()`, registrar
naming, `@context` + `open_context()` as the core model),

- landing: hero example, feature cards + canon links,
- `start/`: install + a 4-example quickstart on-ramp,
- `explain/`: an "SC across processes" essay distilling the essence
  per #157's orig ask + a runtime architecture tour,
- `guide/`: 12 task-focused pages incl the flagship multi-process
  debugging walkthrough, `Context` + `MsgStream` deep-dives,
  cancellation semantics (self-vs-cross cancel rules), discovery,
  infected `asyncio`, typed msging + the #126 testing-tips page,
- `api/`: 10 curated autodoc pages (all targets import-verified vs
  the reorg'd subpkg tree),
- `project/`: changelog include, ported dev-tips (drops old
  `docs/dev_tips.rst`) + roadmap.

Every code block is a `literalinclude` from `examples/`
- zero duplication, all CI-run - w/ `d2` figs floated
into the RHS margin per the 3-col design. Build is green; the 24
remaining warnings all source from lib docstring rst-isms or legacy
`NEWS.rst` content.

Substantially resolves #157 (refine round pending); chips at #175 +
#126.
