Tim Gross b209fc47da docs: move operator subcommands under their own trees (#13677)
The sidebar navigation tree for the `operator` sub-sub commands is
getting cluttered and we have a new set of commands coming to support
secure variables keyring as well. Move these all under their own
subtrees.

# Command: operator raft logs
The `raft logs` command is used to display the log entries persisted in
the Nomad [data directory] in JSON format.
This command requires file system permissions to access the data
directory on disk. The Nomad server locks access to the data
directory, so this command cannot be run on a data directory that is
being used by a running Nomad server.
~> **Warning:** This is a low-level debugging tool and not subject to
Nomad's usual backward compatibility guarantees.
## Usage
```plaintext
nomad operator raft logs [options] <path to data dir>
```
## Examples
The output of this command can be very large, so it's recommended that
you redirect the output to a file for later examination with other
tools.
```shell-session
$ sudo nomad operator raft logs /var/nomad/data > ~/raft-logs.json
$ jq . < ~/raft-logs.json
```
