One idea I proposed to Dan at the Maintainer's Summit was to collect all
the profiles is a single directory in Documentation/, since there are
two ways someone would want to read profiles:

1) a single profile, based on a MAINTAINERS entry which includes the path
2) all of them, to study for various reasons

The #2 case is helped by having them all in one directory with a single
index.rst, etc. Then similar profiles are able to merge, etc.
