Mainly for MySQL/MSSQL.
It is important for Gitea to use case-sensitive database charset
collation. If the database is using a case-insensitive collation, Gitea
will show startup error/warning messages, and show the errors/warnings
on the admin panel's Self-Check page.
Make `gitea doctor convert` work for MySQL to convert the collations of
database & tables & columns.
* Fix#28131
## ⚠️ BREAKING ⚠️
It is not quite breaking, but it's highly recommended to convert the
database&table&column to a consistent and case-sensitive collation.
Duplicate headers in a single Markdown document are problemlematic
because the auto-generated links won't be stable. Enable this rule with
no exceptions which is also the default of `markdownlint`. For example:
```md
# A
## Example
# B
## Example
```
Docasaurus will generated `example` and `example-1` links for this. If
the first heading is altered, the link `example` will unexpectedly move
to the second example heading.

This PR cleans up the docs in a way to make them simpler to ingest by
our [docs repo](https://gitea.com/gitea/gitea-docusaurus).
1. It includes all of the sed invocations our ingestion did, removing
the need to do it at build time.
2. It replaces the shortcode variable replacement method with
`@variable@` style, simply for easier sed invocations when required.
3. It removes unused files and moves the docs up a level as cleanup.

This was intended to be a small followup for
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712, but...here we are.
1. Our docs currently use `slug` as the entire URL, which makes
refactoring tricky (see https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/23712).
Instead, this PR attempts to make future refactoring easier by using
slugs as an extension of the section. (Hugo terminology)
- What the above boils down to is this PR attempts to use directory
organization as URL management. e.g. `usage/comparison.en-us.md` ->
`en-us/usage/comparison/`, `usage/packages/overview.en-us.md` ->
`en-us/usage/packages/overview/`
- Technically we could even remove `slug`, as Hugo defaults to using
filename, however at least with this PR it means `slug` only needs to be
the name for the **current file** rather than an entire URL
2. This PR adds appropriate aliases (redirects) for pages, so anything
on the internet that links to our docs should hopefully not break.
3. A minor nit I've had for a while, renaming `seek-help` to `support`.
It's a minor thing, but `seek-help` has a strange connotation to it.
4. The commits are split such that you can review the first which is the
"actual" change, and the second is added redirects so that the first
doesn't break links elsewhere.

- **Installation**: includes how to install Gitea and related other
tools, also includes upgrade Gitea
- **Administration**: includes how to configure Gitea, customize Gitea
and manage Gitea instance out of Gitea admin UI
- **Usage**: includes how to use Gitea's functionalities. A sub
documentation is about packages, in future we could also include CI/CD
and others.
- **Development**: includes how to integrate with Gitea's API, how to
develop new features within Gitea
- **Contributing**: includes how to contribute code to Gitea
repositories.
After this is merged, I think we can have a sub-documentation of `Usage`
part named `Actions` to describe how to use Gitea actions

We do not currently state the minimum versions of databases we support.
This PR sets them to:
* MySQL >=5.7
* Postgres >=10
* MSSQL >=2008R2 SP3

* Database preparation: Clarify why database client is installed on Gitea server
The database client program (`mysql` or `psql`) is used to test database
connection, but Gitea use Go's database driver to do the same.
Also, rename "server part" and "client part" to "server application" and
"client program" to disambiguate.
* Update docs/content/doc/installation/database-preparation.en-us.md

* Repeat strong password notice on PostgreSQL
* Add prerequisite note
* Use utf8mb4 instead of utf8
* Use utf8mb4 if complete character coverage wanted
* utf8mb4 recommended
* Reword utf8mb4 recommendation
* Set InnoDB global variables may be needed
* Reorder step number
* Whoops, bump year date
* Remove `SET GLOBAL`s and step number reorder
It is assumed that such global variables value are already as default on MySQL 5.7 and later, so those are redundant.
* Syntax edit on MySQL GRANT PRIVILEGEs
* DB engine uniformity intro edit
