Document how to use Launchpad for building snaps
Metadata
Current evaluation
Docs request for Launchpad build instructions was closed as fix-released: elopio pointed to existing guide snapcraft.io/docs/build-snaps/ci-integration#using-launchpad. Content now lives in docs/explanation/remote-build.rst.
Resolution: closed not a bug
Reason: The request was a documentation ask, but the guidance already existed. Maintainer elopio closed it on 2017-01-04 citing http://snapcraft.io/docs/build-snaps/ci-integration#using-launchpad and stating 'I think we can mark it as fix released', so no snapcraft repo change was needed. (Author kyrofa had earlier suggested it belonged in Launchpad docs since it changes often.)
