docs: new design for the documentation site

Apply the brand to the Material for MkDocs site: Inter and JetBrains Mono
served by the site (upright and real italic), brand colours, blue header band
with the syntax pattern, wordmark in the header, new home page (hero, cards,
animated feature tour), 404 page, polish for tabs, search, footer, focus
rings, tables and code blocks, and theme features (code copy, previous/next
footer, TOC follow, search suggestions).

Draw the number railroad diagram, the parser callback events and the iterator
illustrations as inline SVGs that follow the light and dark scheme. The
generator scripts are in docs/mkdocs/scripts/figures; the feature slideshow
(json-light.svg, json-dark.svg, replacing json.gif on the home page) is built
by docs/mkdocs/scripts/slideshow. Decision nodes in five flowcharts become
hexagons, which need far less room.

"""Draws the parser-callback and iterator illustrations as an inline SVG into docs/images/.
The SVG is not an image: the pages include its text with `--8<-- "images/callback_events.svg, range-begin-end.svg and range-rbegin-rend.svg"`, so it picks up the colours and fonts of the
page (see the `railroad` and `nj-fig` rules in docs/css/brand.css). Run `python3 scripts/figures/iterator_callback_figures.py` from docs/mkdocs after
changing the drawing, and commit the generated file. In SVG text write the word JSON as `J&#8203;SON`, otherwise the
abbreviation extension wraps it in an <abbr> and the text disappears.
