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.

# Icon Themes
Zed comes with a built-in icon theme, with more icon themes available as extensions.
## Selecting an Icon Theme
See what icon themes are installed and preview them via the Icon Theme Selector, which you can open from the command palette with `icon theme selector: toggle`.
Navigating through the icon theme list by moving up and down will change the icon theme in real time and hitting enter will save it to your settings file.
## Installing more Icon Themes
More icon themes are available from the Extensions page, which you can access via the command palette with `zed: extensions` or the [Zed website](https://zed.dev/extensions?filter=icon-themes).
## Configuring Icon Themes
Your selected icon theme is stored in your settings file.
You can open your settings file from the command palette with {#action zed::OpenSettingsFile} (bound to {#kb zed::OpenSettingsFile}).
Just like with themes, Zed allows for configuring different icon themes for light and dark mode.
You can set the mode to `"light"` or `"dark"` to ignore the current system mode.
```json [settings]
{
"icon_theme": {
"mode": "system",
"light": "Light Icon Theme",
"dark": "Dark Icon Theme"
}
}
```
