Complete documentation on how to restart an aborted simulation

The following discussion from !130 (merged) should be addressed:

  • @lriedel started a discussion:

    @sospinar, I added the document restart.rst you wrote to the Cookbook, because it seems to me like it covers a rather special case (at least for now). I did a bit of reformatting but otherwise left it as is, with a warning on its WIP status. Merging it this way would be fine for me.

Description

The document restart.rst has missing sections and should be overhauled in the future.

We actually do not support a proper restart of a simulation. The restart.rst page covers the workaround of creating an initial condition H5 file from an output VTK file and inserting it into a new simulation run.

Proposal

This issue could be extended to serve as a list for gathering WIP doc pages and other issues in the docs.
