We had a few code snippets that were using a non-descriptive tag (e.g.
`console` or `text`), whereas the actual language it's using describes
it better, and improves the syntax highlighting. This commit also
removes non-necessary leading chars (e.g. `$`, `>`, or `%`) to make it
easier for readers to copy and paste to try the command themselves.

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.

Throughout the docs, we sometimes write the possessive of _Node.js_ as
_Node.js'_ and other times as _Node.js's_. The former conforms with some
generally accepted style guides (e.g., Associated Press Stylebook) while
the latter complies with others (e.g., Chicago Manual of Style).
Since there is no clear authoritative answer as to which form is
correct, and since (at least to me) both are visually jarring and
sometimes cause a pause to understand, I'd like to reword things to
eliminate the possessive form where possible.
This is one of those examples.

Using `AtExit()` without an `Environment*` pointer or providing
an argument is almost always a sign of improperly relying on global
state and/or using `AtExit()` as an addon when the addon-targeting
`AddEnvironmentCleanupHook()` would be the better choice.
Deprecate those variants. This also updates the addon docs to
refer to `AddEnvironmentCleanupHook()` rather than `AtExit()`.
