* Improve layout of documentation page and add search feature

Closes https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/issues/7915, https://github.com/FreshRSS/FreshRSS/issues/5325

Also: anchor headings and fix building site locally

* Further improvements

* Set color of hyperlinks
* Consistent styling of close aside button across devices
* Mobile layout 600px -> 1200px
* Add suffix to docs `<title>`
    * Note: titles of pages probably need to be improved, since currently they are just derived from the names of the first heading on every page

* Improve font

* Try to fix favicon not loading correctly on GH pages

* Use local font

* Attempt to fix GH pages

* Final improvements

* Copy to clipboard button
* Support for nojs search

CSP so we avoid hotlinking resources and clickable images are useful for zooming on mobile for example
