Issue

  • Documentation spelling checks and link checks fail due to spelling errors and broken links
  • Formatting and navigation issues related to toctrees and double headings

Solution

  • Fixed spelling and broken links
  • Fixed all toctrees and index pages so the navigation works as expected
  • Added the starter pack's CI doc checks for spelling, links, and inclusive language
  • Misc. formatting fixes (newlines, heading capitalization...)

Checklist

  • I have added or updated any relevant documentation.
  • I have cleaned any remaining cloud resources from my accounts.

Ignoring these mysql.com domains because they seem to have protections against the User-Agent headings sent by the GitHub CI, so they return a 403. (At least that's my theory, since running the linkcheck locally and doing a curl request both work fine)

Unsure if there's a better way of handling this so that we can still check for the validity of mysql.com links, like overriding the header with a known user agent.

Thanks again for the big effort. If this is the right PR to address spelling / links / navigation issues, let me remind you about formatting that is not rendered correctly:

@sinclert-canonical This PR was mainly to fix things that would break the docs checks in the CI, and making sure the navigation works.

That being said, those are two pretty self-contained fixes so I think it's worth adding to the PR - thank you for the reminder!

There's a huge amount of formatting and style issues left to address, so that'll come soon now that the Sphinx build and CI are both stable.

one useful comment (and a useless one). I haven't check links, so trusting the process.
Overall looks good
