Prior to this patch, Vector used a mixture of LESS media queries and
ResourceLoader (RL) media queries[0]. So far as I can tell[1], the
latter only instructs RL to wrap the contents of a LESS file within a
query (there are no conditionals placed on style loading). Further,
according to a coauthor of RL (Roan), RL media query support was most
likely a replacement for `@media foo { @import foo.css }` to inline
print styles from a separate style sheet which Vector itself does not
use. The LESS solution is much more intuitive since it's not MediaWiki-
specific and only the LESS code needs to be considered instead of LESS
_and_ the RL configuration in skin.json.
This patch moves both screen media queries to screen.less for the
aforementioned consistency and to avoid nesting queries. It is hoped
that these changes will help make future work easier, such as those to
margin likely to take place in making the sidebar collapsible.

This will help with the encapsulation/reusability of each component.
* Stylesheets were renamed to reflect their respective component name
(e.g. search.less became SearchBox.less)
* Styles were isolated to each component:
* navigation.less now only contains classes that are relevant to
Navigation.mustache.
* personalNavigation.less, search.less, and tabs.less
imports were removed and made first-class styles.
* several selectors were moved into common.less
* #p-logo was moved into sidebar
* tabs.less was renamed to VectorTabs.less and styles specific to
VectorMenu.less were put into VectorMenu.less
* Storybook was updated to reflect changes

Use same code as in MinervaNeue. For unknown reason, Chrome
decides in 2020 to suddenly show search cancel button.

* jsdoc.json was copied from Minerva. The markdown plugin from that
config was removed since there no usages of that in Vector.
* Added latest jsdoc dependency to package.json
* Copied 'jsdoc' task from Minerva into Vector. Revised storybook output
so that multiple docs (storybook + jsdoc) could be in /docs
* Made collapsibleTabs.js JSDoc compliant (This was really the only
thing using jsduck syntax)
* Modified Gruntfile stylelinter to ignore docs folder

Thanks to the dependent change, the print logo is now provided
in core so we can remove the custom Vector ResourceLoader module
ResourceLoaderLessModule is replaced with a ResourceLoaderSkinModule
and gains the features capability replacing the need for
'mediawiki.skinning.interface' making use of the changes added in
6845912bcf1.
Note that for cached HTML both 'mediawiki.skinning.interface'
and skins.vector.styles will be loaded. We can avoid this
by renaming skins.vector.styles if necessary (but I'm not
sure if we'd want to do that)

- Update package.json with the new dependencies.
- A script storybook.sh pulls down CSS and LESS imports from external
dependencies. This copies the approach taken in Popups and MobileFrontend.
- Icons from external repos are maintained within the repo in SVG-only form.
Using load.php modules is also possible, but will pull down other unnecessary icons
and break if any of these modules are changed. Decided that we should manually maintain
these for the time being given there are only 3 icons.
- Several LESS files now import the variables file. I think it's useful for stories
to only import the CSS they use as this encourages us to modularise our CSS. Before these
imports were not necessary as they inherit imports from index.less. This will have no impact
on the bundle size as the LESS compiler silently discards duplicate imports
- stories/utils.js provides a useful placeholder function for generalising our hook entry
points.

A resources folder is the defacto-standard across mediawiki repos.
Vector now mirrors those by describing where files served by ResourceLoader
are located.
