Description

In an effort to explain the GraphQL docs better I drew up what I thought would explain some of the "layers of Gatsby" as I thought of them. These are pretty simplified but generally express what happens in Gatsby in an order that shows data going all the way from a source to being consumed in a component.

I did some hacking to make the Content layer have the data be able to cycle through different data sources that all have the same simple content to express that data can come from anywhere and all ends up looking the same in the GraphQL layer.

I petitioned @fk for some design critiquing and used his input to clean up the design to make it less busy.

layers-model

Added the component to a handful of guides in the Conceptual section where I think it could do the most help expressing what's happening at different places.

Happy to hear any suggestions on how to improve content of each section, design, or whatever it may be.

Related Issues

Related to #15616 about adding more visual aids to docs (though this is about GraphQL, not themes like that issue mentionos)

This came about while working on the GraphQL workflow in #16981, trying to explain these concepts better
