morgankrey 9168df6260 docs: Apply documentation standards across all docs (#49177)
## Summary

Comprehensive remediation of 146 documentation files to align with Zed's
documentation conventions and brand voice guidelines.

## Changes

### YAML Frontmatter
- Added `title` and `description` frontmatter to all docs missing it

### Settings UI Pattern
- Updated 48+ files to show Settings Editor before JSON examples
- Pattern: `Configure X in Settings ({#kb zed::OpenSettings}), or add to
your settings file:`
- Added `([how to edit](./configuring-zed.md#settings-files))` links for
JSON-only settings

### Brand Voice Fixes
- Removed exclamation points (command-palette, key-bindings, repl,
privacy-and-security, etc.)
- Simplified em dash chains to parentheticals (environment,
troubleshooting, agent-panel, etc.)
- Fixed marketing language (yarn.md intro, development/linux.md)

### Terminology Alignment
- `settings UI` -> `Settings Editor`
- `sidebar` -> specific panel names (Project Panel, Collab Panel)
- `directory` -> `folder` in non-technical contexts
- `workspace` -> `project` in non-LSP contexts
- `Command Palette` -> `command palette` (lowercase)

### Callout Standardization
- Converted various callout formats to standard `> **Note:**` pattern

## Related

Depends on conventions established in #49176.

1810ca0290 docs: Big reorganize (#45276)
Release Notes:

- N/A 

Overview

Restructures the documentation navigation to be organized by user goals
rather than feature lists. Introduces a new "Working with Code" section
and reorganizes existing content into clearer groupings.

### Navigation Changes

**New top-level sections:**
- **Working with Code** — Groups editing, navigation, and execution
features by workflow
- **Reference** — Dedicated section for lookup-only content (settings,
actions, CLI)
- **Coming From...** — Migration guides grouped together

**Reorganized sections:**
- **Customization** — Renamed from "Configuration," focused on
appearance and keybindings
- **Account & Privacy** — Consolidated auth, privacy, and telemetry
pages

| `running-testing.md` | Overview page for tasks, debugger, and REPL |
| `reference/all-settings.md` | Settings reference (moved/renamed) |

mgandKirill Bulatov f4b37f571d Add Windows path for extensions (#42645)
### Description

The `installing-extensions.md` guide was missing the directory path for
the Windows platform. It currently only lists the paths for macOS and
Linux. This PR adds the correct path for Windows users
(`%LOCALAPPDATA%\zed\extensions`).
