docs: consolidate host-local documentation

- remove the README.md in the plugins/ipam/host-local (no other plugin
  has this)
- merge that info into the main Documentation/host-local.md

# host-local plugin
# host-local IP address management plugin
host-local IPAM allocates IPv4 and IPv6 addresses out of a specified address range. Optionally,
it can include a DNS configuration from a `resolv.conf` file on the host.
## Overview
host-local IPAM plugin allocates IPv4 addresses out of a specified address range.
It stores the state locally on the host filesystem, therefore ensuring uniqueness of IP addresses on a single host.
## Example configuration
```
## Example configurations
IPv4:
```json

"ipam": {
"type": "host-local",

],

IPv6:
```json
{
"ipam": {
"type": "host-local",
"subnet": "3ffe:ffff:0:01ff::/64",
"rangeStart": "3ffe:ffff:0:01ff::0010",

"routes": [
{ "dst": "3ffe:ffff:0:01ff::1/64" }
],
"resolvConf": "/etc/resolv.conf"
}
}
```
We can test it out on the command-line:
```bash
$ export CNI_COMMAND=ADD
$ export CNI_CONTAINERID=f81d4fae-7dec-11d0-a765-00a0c91e6bf6
$ echo '{ "name": "default", "ipam": { "type": "host-local", "subnet": "203.0.113.0/24" } }' | ./host-local
```
```json
{
"ip4": {
"ip": "203.0.113.1/24"
}
}
```

## Files
Allocated IP addresses are stored as files in /var/lib/cni/networks/$NETWORK_NAME.
Allocated IP addresses are stored as files in `/var/lib/cni/networks/$NETWORK_NAME`. The prefix can be customized with the `dataDir` option listed above.
