Research direction
Start by locating the Sphinx theme templates, especially navbar.html and docsidebar.html, and review how the theme handles command-line options. Compare the generated Dash documentation and Matplotlib's approach to including guides and the example gallery in the application TOC. Done means the four listed requirements are addressed and the output works in Dash or Zeal.

Description
The dash docs format is supported by a number of offline/enhanced documentation browsers (e.g dash, zeal) it would be nice to have this option for Sunpy.
The tool to create the documentation sets supports sphinx out of the box and I was able to get a decent looking version by hacking my local version of the theme deleting the contents of navbar.html and docsidebar.html.

From my experimenting four major things need to be done:
- Remove or make top navbar scroll with page
- Remove sidebar
- Include guides section in application TOC
- Include example gallery in application TOC
I think the first two could by handled by having a different set of templates and changing that with a command line arg. The last two I'm not sure about need to see what Matplotlib does for example.
