Move gh-pages branch files into /docs and add test files

- Jekyll ignore `/docs` and `/test` folders when using from root
- Update Staticman config to point to correct branch and data file location
- Replace `{{ base_path }}` references with `absolute_url` filter
- Update documentation

+Collections like posts and pages work as you'd expect. If you're new to them be sure to read [Jekyll's documentation](https://jekyllrb.com/docs/collections/).
+
+The theme has been built with collections in mind and you will find [several examples]({{ "/collection-archive/" | absolute_url }}) on the demo site ([portfolio]({{ "/portfolio/" | absolute_url }}), [recipes]({{ "/recipes/" | absolute_url }}), pets). 
+
+**Collections in the Wild:** This set of documentation is also [built as a collection](https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_docs/) if you're looking for a fully fleshed out example to inspect.

+
+A popular use case for collections is to build a portfolio section as part of one's personal site. Let's quickly walk through the steps to do that.
+
+**Step 1:** Configure the portfolio collection by adding the following to `_config.yml`.
+
+```yaml
+collections:
+  portfolio:
+    output: true
+    permalink: /:collection/:path/
+```
+
+These settings essentially say output `index.html` files for each portfolio document in `_portfolio` at `_site/portfolio/<document-filename>/`.
+
+Just like posts and pages you'll probably want to set some defaults for the Front Matter:
+
+```yaml
+defaults:
+  # _portfolio
+  - scope:
+      path: ""
+      type: portfolio
+    values:
+      layout: single
+      author_profile: false
+      share: true
+```
+
+And then create portfolio content like [`_portfolio/foo-bar-website.md`](https://github.com/{{ site.repository }}/blob/master/docs/_portfolio/foo-bar-website.md), to end up with something like this.
