doc/dev: Add code intelligence development documentation

Administrator requested to merge codeintel-dev-docs into main

Created by: efritz

This PR creates a new section for code intelligence developers:

  • General architecture
  • How to deploy (this will become more relevant once we have the indexer service outside of k8s)
  • Sequence diagrams/discussion for code intel queries in the backend
  • Sequence diagrams/discussion for index processing
  • Sequence diagrams/discussion for how code intel extensions resolve data

Each of these contain references to relevant code to help onboarding. The last point also contains a search query appendix, which has been a point of repeated questions in the past. Hopefully that will be helpful outside of the code intel team as well!
