Add hard-coded breadcrumbs to documentation files about installation procedure for easier navigation (#3745) 
* Add hard-coded breadcrumbs to documentation files about installation procedure for easier navigation

Since it is easy to get lost among these files, the breadcrumbs should be helpful to get the whole picture of the procedure. Hopefully they will be replaced with something else generated automatically.

Please note that the usage of <sup> HTML tags on this context is not proper as the tag is intended to be used only for typographical reasons. Here <small> tags should rather be used instead as long as we do not use CSS, but since GitHub strips these tags against its spec (https://github.github.com/gfm/#disallowed-raw-html-extension-) (also note: the <small> HTML tags are not stripped on Codeberg for example), this commit intentionally uses <sup> to have those breadcrumbs rendered in small points.

# Configuring the playbook
<sup>⚡️[Quick start](README.md) | [Prerequisites](prerequisites.md) > [Configuring your DNS server](configuring-dns.md) > [Getting the playbook](getting-the-playbook.md) > Configuring the playbook > [Installing](installing.md) </sup>
To configure the Ansible playbook, you need to have done the following things:
- have a server where Matrix services will run
- [configured your DNS records](configuring-dns.md)
- [retrieved the playbook's source code](getting-the-playbook.md) to your computer
You can then follow these steps inside the playbook directory:
1. create a directory to hold your configuration (`mkdir -p inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com` where `example.com` is your "base domain")
2. copy the sample configuration file (`cp examples/vars.yml inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`)
3. edit the configuration file (`inventory/host_vars/matrix.example.com/vars.yml`) to your liking. You may also take a look at the various `roles/*/ROLE_NAME_HERE/defaults/main.yml` files and see if there's something you'd like to copy over and override in your `vars.yml` configuration file.
4. copy the sample inventory hosts file (`cp examples/hosts inventory/hosts`)
5. edit the inventory hosts file (`inventory/hosts`) to your liking
6. (optional, advanced) you may wish to keep your `inventory` directory under version control with [git](https://git-scm.com/) or any other version-control system.
7. (optional, advanced) to run Ansible against multiple servers with different `sudo` credentials, you can copy the sample inventory hosts yaml file for each of your hosts: (`cp examples/host.yml inventory/my_host1.yml` …) and use the [`ansible-all-hosts.sh`](../bin/ansible-all-hosts.sh) script [in the installation step](installing.md).
For a basic Matrix installation, that's all you need.
For a more custom setup, see the [Other configuration options](#other-configuration-options) below.
When you're done with all the configuration you'd like to do, continue with [Installing](installing.md).
