Support for the 'node:' prefixed builtin module namespace was introduced
for `require()` expressions in Node v16.0.0, and backported to v14.18.0.
This was never supported in Node v15.x or chronologically older.
All of the current API history notes in the docs using 'node:' prefixed
module `require()`s happen to be documenting changes in Node versions
from before the time when support was first introduced.
This commit reverts those `require()`s in the history notes to be
un-prefixed. (They were incorrect as written; The prefixed `require()`s
would not work for those older Node versions.)
This change prevents the API history notes from inaccurately implying
'node:' prefixed builtin modules were introduced many Node versions ago,
or were `require()`-able with the 'node:' prefix in those Node versions.

Some core modules can be loaded with or without the `node:` prefix.
Using the prefix disambiguates which specifiers refer to core modules.
This commit updates the docs to use the prefix everywhere a core module
is referenced.

Main changes:
- Replace current HTML anchor generation to match
header anchor generation in Github markdown.
- Remove unnecessary double namespacing on generated anchors/links (E.G.
`esm.md#loaders` instead of `esm.md#esm_loaders`).
- Anchors/links are automatically prefixed with their respective modules
when concatenated for usage in `all.html`.
Benefits:
- All anchor links within and between markdown API docs actually work.
- Adding new anchor links no longer requires contributors to generate
the HTML docs first to look up the correct anchors.
- Anchors are much shorter.
- All previous anchor links are preserved by generating hidden legacy
anchors.

Our documentation uses em dashes inconsistently. They are treated
inconsistently typographically too. (For example, they are sometimes
surrounded by spaces and sometimes not.) They are also often confused
with ordinary hyphens such as in the CHANGELOG, where they are
inadvertently mixed together in a single list. The difference is
not obvious in the raw markdown but is very noticeable when rendered,
appearing to be a typographical error (which it in fact is).
The em dash is never needed. There are always alternatives. Remove em
dashes entirely.
