Refactor docs (#23752)
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.

npm Packages Repository

Publish npm packages for your user or organization.

Requirements

To work with the npm package registry, you need Node.js coupled with a package manager such as Yarn or npm itself.

The registry supports scoped and unscoped packages.

The following examples use the npm tool with the scope @test.

Configuring the package registry

To register the package registry you need to configure a new package source.

npm config set {scope}:registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/npm/
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/{owner}/npm/:_authToken' "{token}"
Parameter Description
scope The scope of the packages.
owner The owner of the package.
token Your [personal access token]({{< relref "doc/development/api-usage.en-us.md#authentication" >}}).

For example:

npm config set @test:registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/:_authToken' "personal_access_token"

or without scope:

npm config set registry https://gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/
npm config set -- '//gitea.example.com/api/packages/testuser/npm/:_authToken' "personal_access_token"

Publish a package

Publish a package by running the following command in your project:

npm publish

You cannot publish a package if a package of the same name and version already exists. You must delete the existing package first.

Unpublish a package

Delete a package by running the following command:

npm unpublish {package_name}[@{package_version}]
Parameter Description
package_name The package name.
package_version The package version.

For example:

npm unpublish @test/test_package
npm unpublish @test/test_package@1.0.0

Install a package

To install a package from the package registry, execute the following command:

npm install {package_name}
Parameter Description
package_name The package name.

For example:

npm install @test/test_package

Tag a package

The registry supports version tags which can be managed by npm dist-tag:

npm dist-tag add {package_name}@{version} {tag}
Parameter Description
package_name The package name.
version The version of the package.
tag The tag name.

For example:

npm dist-tag add test_package@1.0.2 release

The tag name must not be a valid version. All tag names which are parsable as a version are rejected.

Search packages

The registry supports searching but does not support special search qualifiers like author:gitea.

Supported commands

npm install
npm ci
npm publish
npm unpublish
npm dist-tag
npm view
npm search
