Title: Convert all the guides into GFM

It seems like apart from README and CHANGELOG, Ruby on Rails Guide are the only place that use Textile in our documentation. So, I've to convert those to Github Flavored Markdown, to make it consistent with other documentations on the site. This will make us having to write documentation only in RDoc and Markdown and also lower a barrier of entry for guide editors, as it seems like contributors nowadays will know how to use GFM more than Textile.

The generated version of the guide is currently at https://dl.dropbox.com/u/506761/output/index.html.

**NOTE:** There might be some places that the style might still be broken. However, I think it have reaches the point that I want to merge this in first and follow up with the style changes, as there're so many merge conflicts that came up after I rebased it tonight. I'd still say it's ~99% done though. I also want to get it in because guides are changed so frequent, so the faster the better. :P
