    doc: finish concepts.md
    
    The concepts about what is lava, what lava is not and lava in the CI
    loop are migrated from the following docs. They are improved and
    simplified a little bit.
    
    * doc/v2/what-is-lava.rsti
    * doc/v2/lava_ci.rst
    
    The original `lava-ci.svg` flow chart is now replaced by `mermaid.js`
    based graph. The shapes and words are tweaked a little bit. LAVA's role
    in the CI flow chart is described in details now.

    Remove OrderedDict use
    
    Since Python 3.7 dictionaries are guaranteed to preserve insertion
    order: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2017-December/151283.html
    
    This makes using OrderedDict redundant in most cases. Remove the
    remaining uses.
