Elias Dorneles 3ac3ac4d92 docs: update data flow description and image (fixes: #2278)
This fixes the explanation to use Requests instead of URLs,
which is what actually happens, and is also consistent with the
new tutorial, which already explains how URLs become Request objects.

I've also changed the "loop", jumping from 9 to step 2.

Elias Dorneles 18bd0b0886 docs: update overview spider code to use toscrape.com and minor changes
So, this will replace the spider example code from the overview that
scrapes questions from StackOverflow by a spider scraping quotes (much
like the one in the tutorial), and upates the text around it to be
consistent.

There are also minor wording changes plus a small Sphinx/reST syntax fix
on the features list at the bottom (it was creating a definition list,
causing one line to be bold).
