How do we do that if it depends on the incident particle energy?

The "applicability" for interactions should have a lower bound for the incident particle energy based on conservation rules etc. So, given a particle type and the electron cutoff for a material, we should be able to solve for the lowest incident muon energy that creates an electron higher than the secondary cutoff. Right? The reason we can't do this now is because we don't have per-material applicability (#907).

Ah yes, that's right. Actually, looking again I think the max secondary energy might already be used to limit the cross section/energy loss calculation in Geant4, in which case we shouldn't need to do anything except remove the (unnecessary) check in the interactor.
This breaks apart several of the long Sphinx RST files into smaller ones (so that instead of being organized according to the code directories, it's broken apart by subject matter). It flattens the structure to make it easier to jump to and read certain parts of the documentation. Finally it improves usability of the within-document sidebar.
