Ilia Sharin b915524667 docs: Document CDFS architecture and handler ecosystem
- Add comprehensive cdfs.md covering ISO 9660, UDF, handlers, and hardware.
- Update relevant section indexes (07_dos, 10_devices, 02_boot_sequence) and root README.
- Expand scsi.md to link to the new CDFS coverage.

Devices — Overview

Amiga devices are shared libraries with an exec I/O request interface. They provide standardised access to hardware peripherals via OpenDevice/CloseDevice and DoIO/SendIO patterns.
