Issue body
Needs https://github.com/canonical/pebble/pull/188.
~~**TODO:**~~
~~Once the above PRs are merged:~~
~~- re-run the tests~~
~~- update the Tutorials and How-to guides~~
In this PR:
- the `services` field is added to the Rockcraft project, with a lightweight validation according to the spec from https://github.com/canonical/pebble#layer-specification
- the OCI entrypoint is fixed to always be `pebble enter`
- the OCI cmd is `null`
- the implicit `pebble` part now also creates the `$PEBBLE` path, where the Pebble layer is later be written
- `entrypoint` and `cmd` are kept, but marked as deprecated, printing an error message and exiting the build whenever they are used
- the Reference docs are updated
- updated how-to guides and tutorial
- adjusted all spread tests
