* fix: use repo-relative links with .md for GitHub compatibility

Convert all documentation links to repo-relative format (/docs/path/file.md)
so they work when browsing on GitHub. The rehype plugin strips /docs/ prefix
and converts .md to trailing slash at build time for Astro/Starlight.

- Update rehype-markdown-links.js to strip /docs/ prefix from absolute paths
- Update fix-doc-links.js to generate /docs/ prefixed paths with .md extension
- Convert 217 links across 64 files to new format

* fix: handle /docs/ prefix in link validator

Update resolveLink to strip /docs/ prefix from repo-relative links
before checking if files exist.

* docs: restore FAQ index page

Re-add the FAQ index page that was accidentally deleted, with
updated repo-relative link format.
