[#556]: Removed the _utils/deploy.sh script. Now the logic to deploy the docs is in the GitHub Actions workflow.

#525: When a user clicks on Create an issue button, the issue is now created with the prefix docs: and the label documentation.

#551: Adds an option to hide the multiversion selector for projects for projects that only build one version.

#509: We redesigned the home page search box to make it more visible.

#515: Before, redirects were part of the theme. This means that, for every version, the same redirects were being created, giving us little control if we wanted to redirect a page from the previous version to a different URL. Now, we are using a separate third-party package to create redirections. Also, instead of creating the same redirections for each version, we generate them at the end once the docs are built. This allows us to have better control of the redirects per version.
