Replace mkdocs-material with zensical for building the documentation, same as prefix-dev/pixi#6572. ### Migration - `zensical.toml` replaces `mkdocs.yml` - `rattler_build_docs` now also writes the CLI navigation into `zensical.toml` between markers - New `scripts/generate_llmstxt.py` generates `llms.txt` and `llms-full.txt` at the site root, with task dependencies split like in prefix-dev/pixi#6757. ### Fixes surfaced by the migration - Zensical's strict link validation caught a broken link in `understanding_terminal_output.md`. - `index.md` and `rattler_index.md` get frontmatter titles, since zensical derives titles from the filename when a page has no `h1`. - `repo_url` loses its trailing slash, which produced a double slash in the edit links. ### How Has This Been Tested? - Let agent compare Zensical output with mkdocs output - Ran it locally
