docs: port to VitePress
Things that happen in this shameless squash:
- Removed 404 page
  - It doesn't work in VitePress and making it work in VitePress needs
    some invasive hack in the theme that I'm not willing to do
  - The default is more than enough, though
- Moved consoleVersionSelect include to another directory
  - This avoids being uploaded to Crowdin for translation
- Inline all SafeB9SInstaller includes
  - Not only do parameterized includes not work, but if/else statements
    don't work at all
- The sysupdate include parameter hasn't been used since MSET9, so it
  actually works just fine without any parameters. Hooray(?)
- Move mset9-chorus to an include, that logic doesn't work in VitePress
- Removed Get Started button from homepage, it breaks translations
- Tables in get-started are now shown by default; it seems VitePress really does
  not want us to use inline script. So we cannot enable it upon
  realizing that the browser is JS capable
- Include parameters are now in frontmatter to allow translation
- Hacked in a bunch of CSS values kanged from the old theme to make it
  look not stupid
- Drop headers down one level to make table of contents work

# Flashing ntrboot (3DS Multi System)
## Required Reading
Before proceeding, ensure you have read all of the information on [ntrboot](ntrboot).
This method requires temporary access to a second 3DS family console that is already running boot9strap. This does not require your flashcart to support either 3DS's version.
::: danger
Note that in some rare circumstances, it may be possible for the flashing process to **brick** a counterfeit flashcart and render it permanently unusable. This is unlikely, but nevertheless, only original listed flashcarts are supported. To reduce the chance of receiving a counterfeit card, it is recommended that you use a reputable site to buy your flashcart (such as [NDS Card](https://www.nds-card.com/)).
