Lauryn Menard 41ac95fe52 docs: Update "How it works" section in Documenting REST API endpoints.
Updates this section to use the shared `api-doc-template.md` as a
guide, as well as the current documentation for the `render-message`
endpoint. Previously, this section referred to a file that had been
removed with the transition to a shared template file.

Fixes #24485.

- Update rendering of API documentation for new directory.

Lauryn Menard c2bcfb52aa api-tests: Reduce error output for `/register` openapi validation.
For descriptive endpoints, such as `/register`, that might raise
Schema Validation errors via `validate_against_openapi_schema`,
omits the OpenAPI schema definition in the error output.

Also omits the error instance definition in the error output
when it is a jsonschema object with over 100 properties. This
means that the test instance for objects, like user settings,
will be printed in the error output, but the test instance for
the entire endpoint will not be printed to the console.

The omitted output can be thousands of lines long making it
difficult to find the initial console output that actually helps
the contributor with debugging.

Adds a section in "Documenting REST API endpoints" about
debugging and understanding these errors that is linked to
in the error console output.

Lauryn Menard 6759767b14 api-docs: Move include markdown macro files for API documentation.
Moves files in `templates/zerver/help/include` that are used
specifically for API documentation pages to be in a new directory:
`templates/zerver/api/include`.

Adds a boolean parameter to `render_markdown_path` to be used
for help center documentation articles.

Also moves the test file `empty.md` to the new directory since
this is the default directory for these special include macros
that are used in documentation pages.

Anders Kaseorg 75525f5b53 docs: Convert .html#fragment links to .md#fragment.
This uses the myst_heading_anchors option to automatically generate
header anchors and make Sphinx aware of them.  See
https://myst-parser.readthedocs.io/en/latest/syntax/optional.html#auto-generated-header-anchors.

Note: to be compatible with GitHub, MyST-Parser uses a slightly
different convention for .md fragment links than .html fragment links
when punctuation is involved.  This does not affect the generated
fragment links in the HTML output.

Fixes #13264.

Anders Kaseorg c19d6fb3ef docs: Clean redundant relative links.
We previously had a convention of redundantly including the directory
in relative links to reduce mistakes when moving content from one file
to another.  However, these days we have a broken link checker in
test-documentation, and after #21237, MyST-Parser will check relative
links (including fragments) when you run build-docs.

Suyash Vardhan Mathur ad8d9f2133 docs: Document the new APIDocs template system.
Recently, the need for individual Markdown templates for
every endpoint's OpenAPI page was removed, as they are now
auto-generated from OpenAPI data. Further, as a part of this
migration, several new fields and Markdown extensions were added.
This commit updates the documentation to reflect the changes that
have occured as a result of the migration.

With various edits by tabbott to clarify or simplify the documentation.

openapi: Render all responses of an operation.
Previously, one needed to specifying all the HTTP status
codes that we want to render along with the operation,
but the primary use case just needs the responses of
all the status codes, and not just one.

This commit modifies the Markdown extension to render
all the responses of all status codes of a specified
operation in a loop.

David Rosa bdbc384de5 docs: Reduce the number of apparently broken links on github.
- Updated 260+ links from ".html" to ".md" to reduce the number of issues
reported about hyperlinks not working when viewing docs on Github.
- Removed temporary workaround that suppressed all warnings reported
by sphinx build for every link ending in ".html".

Details:
The recent upgrade to recommonmark==0.5.0 supports auto-converting
".md" links to ".html" so that the resulting HTML output is correct.

Notice that links pointing to a heading i.e. "../filename.html#heading",
were not updated because recommonmark does not auto-convert them.
These links do not generate build warnings and do not cause any issues.
However, there are about ~100 such links that might still get misreported
as broken links.  This will be a follow-up issue.

Background:
docs: pip upgrade recommonmark and CommonMark #13013
docs: Allow .md links between doc pages #11719

Fixes #11087.
