Delete extension authoring docs

Administrator requested to merge dv/delete-extension-authoring-docs into main

Created by: vdavid

Closes https://github.com/sourcegraph/sourcegraph/issues/40991

Co-author: @philipp-spiess

There were three parts to solving this issue:

  • Make sure there are deprecation notices on each extension page
  • Delete "authoring extensions" section
  • Add "deprecated" badges to menus

In this PR:

  • Deprecation notices were all in place, so no changes were needed.
  • Deleted "authoring extensions" pages, including all references to them. We also needed to rephrase a few parts in the docs to remove extension mentions.
  • Didn't need to add any badges to the content because there were no in-line menus. On the left and right sides, there are menus that list extension-related pages, but those are part of the Sourcegraph docs engine rather than the content. I decided it brought too little compared to the effort needed to add badges there.

Test plan

Go through the docs as reviewers and see if they look fine
