Adds a new docs website, built with Gatsby JS, to replace the old Jekyll site. Source code for the new site lives in /www (although markdown and YML data still comes from the legacy /docs folder).
Changes to either markdown or website source code can be previewed on Netlify. The react-js bot should automatically add comments to each PR with preview links. (This preview is generated by running the newly-added yarn build:docs command in the root package.json.)
The majority of the changes in this PR are contained within the new /www directory. However some minor modifications have been made to existing content in the /docs directory:
* Modified frontmatter author block to always be an array
* Small markdown formatting tweaks
Update links to use https:// where it is supported. There's probably a lot
more that could be fixed, but these are the core ones I found (especially
the download links in order to prevent MITM attacks). Note that there are
some fb.me links that will redirect to http:// even while accessed over
https://, but this seemed like the best way to fix those for now.
NOTE: Only non-third-party files were modified. There are references to
http:// URLs in vendored/third-party files, but seems appropriate to fix
upstream for those rather than editing the files.
Also, copy one image locally to the blog, as it was hotlinking to a site
that did not support https://.
Last, use youtube-nocookie.com instead of youtube.com for video embeds,
as the former doesn't try to set a cookie on load (privacy enhancement).
Note: we need to manually specify date in these files so that the sort order is
correct (2 posts on the same day). Otherwise it will just be ABC order, which
is wrong.
Closes: #3256
