content: add getting-started page

Add a stub for "Getting Started", an introduction to the bot and how to add it. As of now, it just explains how to add the bot and to consider changing the prefix, as well as enabling all commands. Side Note: Due to reasons I cannot explain we keep images used in the respective articles *next* to them. That way (at least as far as I can tell), they both work during local development and production. Signed-off-by: Luca Zeuch <[email protected]>

+## Adding The Bot
+
+{{% notice info %}}
+
+You need to have the **Manage Server** permission to add the bot to your server.
+
+{{% /notice %}}
+
+1. Go to <https://yagpdb.xyz/manage>
+2. Click on **Login with Discord** in the top-left corner
+3. Authorize the application to know what servers you are in
+4. Select the server you want to add the bot to in the dropdown menu
+
+## First Steps
+
+Before doing anything, you should first take a closer look at the Control Panel you just opened. It is the main
+interface for configuring the bot, and is where you will spend most of your time. Visit a few subpages to get a feel for
+the navigation and layout.
+
+Afterward, visit the Commands tab (`Core > Command settings`) and make sure that the default prefix (`-`) does not
+conflict with other bots you may have. Also make sure to enable all commands, such that you can actually use YAGPDB.
