Updates to the base theme

Jamie Maynard requested to merge theme-updates into main

Why is this change being made?

All layouts with the exception of the one supporting the homepage have been moved to the theme so they can be shared across handbooks. The same applies to the contribuitor docs.

The handbook has been tweaked to remove references to legacy handbook to current public handbook to avoid any confusion and the background on the top cover has been altered slightly.
