VitePress migration (#237)
* Remove docsify.js files

* treewide: Remove obsolete pages and files

- These are no longer used, no longer recommended, and no longer have a
  reason to stay in the guide.
- Of note are the vWii contents, which now live in wii.hacks.guide.

* translations: drop all languages

The migration will break all of them, so it's best to let it get
regenerated by Crowdin.

This also deletes leftover files that don't exist in the main guide.

* Initialize VitePress

- Add theme submodule
- Add initial configuration files
- Override theme-default VPFooter with custom theme version

* docs: port to VitePress

* config: add sidebar/navbar and initial translation support

* config: add footer

* workflow: add VitePress build steps

* crowdin: move to VitePress

* config: add favicon

* config: add GitHub link to navbar

* config: add Discord invite to navbar

* LICENSE: update for VitePress

While the docs are licensed under ISC, the theme is licensed under
MIT. Explicitly specify this.

* Add dependabot configs for npm

* config: add support for `default` keyword in tabs

Specifying `tab default` will allow defaulting to this tab on page
load.

* docs: conditionally enable the prev/next buttons

These only make sense in the Aroma pages; the rest aren't chronological
paths.

* homepage: add custom homepage hero implementation

This retires the old logo, and brings in Plailect's old Wii U guide
image.
