Weave basics docs revamp DOCS-1896

[anastasiaguspan]

Description

Massive rework of 'Basics' page that is 1224 lines long of chaos, containing "engineering-speak".
Divided into conceptual pages, diffing against other existing content and removing only when closely matched.
Attempted grouping/reordering of ToC/IA.

A lot of cleanup in terms of ordering and ensuring surrounding content has a single concept per page. I call out a large number of these in the COMMENTS ON THE TICKET. https://wandb.atlassian.net/browse/DOCS-1896

Pls read the comments on the ticket for a (sorry, large) number of additional things that prb warrant discussion/decision/improvement still.
Note, i'd start at the bottom (oldest first), but there is a huge chunk about me working out additional details regarding the schema page (as I felt it was poorly adequate in details for the user). I'll prb ask Scott to review that one.

Testing

• [ x] Local build succeeds without errors (mint dev)
• [ x] Local link check succeeds without errors (mint broken-links)
• PR tests succeed
