Rework the developer quiz
Attempt to improve the non-ebuild developer quiz: - explicitly request documentation links along answers, - try to clarify the questions, request specific details, - merge project-related questions since they overlap, - reorder and split the question so that the organizational part matches the ebuild developer quiz.
