Restructure Vale configuration

Evan Read requested to merge eread/refactor-vale-config-structure into master

What does this MR do?

In preparation for being able to roll this out to more projects:

  • Moves GitLab Vale styles into a directory with less redundancy.
  • Pares down the configuration file to only what is necessary.

I have a preference for .vale rather than doc/.vale, but it's minor thing. I still maintain that doc is for content only, but am ok with being overruled on that.

Author's checklist

Review checklist

All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the Documentation Guidelines and Style Guide.

1. Primary Reviewer

  • Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.

2. Technical Writer

  • Optional: Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable DevOps stage.

3. Maintainer

  1. Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
  2. Ensure a release milestone is set.
  3. If there has not been a technical writer review, create an issue for one using the Doc Review template.
