docs: Remove hyperlinks to docs in artifacts
It is possible to use sphinx cross referencing feature in case, that only one level of toctree is used. Thus documentation was reorganized to utilize just one top level index with toctree. After that it was possible to use rst native syntax to create a cross links among vsperf documentation chapters. As a result only 2 hyperlinks to the yardstick documentation are version specific.
