[vm/docs] Improve VM docs tooling.
Main change is around removing our custom syntax which allows
to read markdown files directly on GitHub:
* instead of using custom link format `@{xref}` we start
using normal links. For example, [`dart::ThreadPool`][] is
understood as a ref to `dart::ThreadPool` class declaration.
`build.py` script injects an xref section at the end of
each markdown file.
* similarly we don't use custom syntax for admonitions, but
instead use blockquotes. `build.py` detects block quotes
which start with a marker like `**Note**` and renders
then in a custom way.
This CL also drops dependency on cquery and instead rewrites
indexing in pure Python via libclang.

Dart is:
Optimized for UI: Develop with a programming language specialized around the needs of user interface creation.
Productive: Make changes iteratively: use hot reload to see the result instantly in your running app.
Fast on all platforms: Compile to ARM & x64 machine code for mobile, desktop, and backend. Or compile to JavaScript for the web.
Dart's flexible compiler technology lets you run Dart code in different ways, depending on your target platform and goals:
Dart Native: For programs targeting devices (mobile, desktop, server, and more), Dart Native includes both a Dart VM with JIT (just-in-time) compilation and an AOT (ahead-of-time) compiler for producing machine code.
Dart Web: For programs targeting the web, Dart Web includes both a development time compiler (dartdevc) and a production time compiler (dart2js).
Dart is free and open source.
