High-level PR Summary

This PR adds a built-in documentation search tool that allows the AI assistant to search and cite Surfsense's own documentation when answering user questions about how to use the application. The implementation includes database tables (surfsense_docs_documents and surfsense_docs_chunks) with vector embeddings for semantic search, an indexer that processes MDX documentation files at run time, a new agent tool for searching the docs, API routes for citation resolution, and frontend updates to display documentation citations alongside regular knowledge base citations using a doc- prefix to differentiate them.
