You include here a listing of TableGen syntax -- that's fine, but it's now redundant with what's in `TableGen/LangRef.rst`, and this redundancy is a very bad place for us to be in.

A search turns up no other references to the two old documents in the Clang or LLVM documentation. Then once this is committed, we can delete the two old files. (Is that what we do, delete them?)

Why not just delete them at the same time? (them = LangIntro.rst and LangRef.rst, I assume) Making the change atomically like that feels more "right" to me. And after actually scanning those two docs again, yes, I agree that we can just delete them.

I've sent a few more a few minutes ago, but that should cover it as far as I'm concerned.
