Robert Dyer eb2f1b4788 docs: Upgrade development environment page to use synced tabs.
This greatly reduces how much content for other platforms a reader has
to scroll past in order to get the development environment set up.

Zixuan James Li 4a18552ff8 docs: Document and advocate systemd for WSL 2.
systemd makes it a lot convenient to run services required for Zulip's
development environment on WSL 2. Once enabled, `tools/start_service`
becomes unnecessary.

David Rosa 02eec29433 docs: Rename setup-vagrant.md -> setup-recommended.md.
Renames the filename so that it accurately reflects its contents
given the changes to the "Recommended setup" page in the previous
commit, and updates all links accordingly.

David Rosa cdc9a64c21 docs: Fix development environment setup on Windows.
Windows users end up having to follow an odd chain of links because
the recommended installation instructions live on a different
page than the rest of the instructions about the environment setup.

All the tutorials about recommended install prerequisites for each
platform should be on the same page.

This moves the section about using WSL 2 from the advanced setup page
to the recommended environment setup tutorial page.

Renames sidebar and section titles to more accurately reflect the
information in the Recommended setup vs. the Advanced setup page.
Updates relevant text and links accordingly.

Fixes: #13696.

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.

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.

Samuel Searles-Bryant c87893feea docs: Update .html links to .md.
Sphinx/ReadTheDocs supports automatically translating links written as
to `.md` files to point to the corresponding `.html` files, so this
migration does not change the resulting HTML output in ReadTheDocs.
But it does fix apparent broken links on GitHub.

This doesn't prevent people from reading the documentation on GitHub
(so doesn't mitigate the fact that some rtd-specific syntax does not
render properly on GH), but it will prevent us from getting erroneous
issues reported about the hyperlinks not working.

Fixes: #11087.
