Give falconry.org a 4.0 update

[kgriffs]

Update the website to let visitors know the framework is progressing.

• [ ] Highlight "4.0"
• [ ] Highlight ASGI support
• [x] Update the frontpage snippet (API :arrow_right: App et cetera)
• [ ] Consider switching from bootstrap to something based on vue (not critical)
• [ ] Update color scheme
• [x] Make docs links more obvious/abundant (see also: https://github.com/falconry/falconry.github.io/issues/19 :arrow_left: close when fixed)
• [x] Merge PR backlog in the falconry.org repository (currently 1 PR pending: https://github.com/falconry/falconry.github.io/pull/24 )
• [ ] Sphinx docs facelift tracked separately in #2198

(I'll take this one when the time comes.)

@kgriffs do you need assistance with this or are you accepting support? Are there particular points of conversation you want to emphasize? The README has "Fast", "Reliable", "Flexible", "Debuggable" as the tenants of the framework, would you want to highlight those?

I would be interesting in helping where it makes sense.

[kgriffs]

I'd be glad to have help with this one. 👍

The current website does not have a link to the documentation. I think it would be very useful to have one, both in the top menu and below the example. (Maybe something like "See quickstart documentation")

The "Get Started" link goes to the docs, but it sounds like we need to reword to make it more obvious, and add a few additional links elsewhere.

I totally missed it. I was searching for it on the top bar.

[vytas7]

@MajidHeydari FWIW, Falcon does exist in some of those Techempower benchmarks, like the plain text one: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r20&hw=ph&test=plaintext

(And we're looking quite alright there.)
