Move docstrings from helpdb/Base.jl inline

Yay hackathon <3

Thanks in advance for reviewing!

I wonder if some of these docstrings occur before enough of the documentation system itself has been loaded (which would explain the CI problems).

Yes, I don't think we can have inline docstrings in boot.jl for instance, that's why I added the number docstrings in helpdb/Base.jl in #22067

[KristofferC]

Perhaps we should have a comment on those helpdb docstrings that are difficult to move.

[fredrikekre]

Or possibly helpdb/boot.jl etc, which would be more contained than having everything in helpdb/Base.jl?

[KristofferC]

Yes

[KristofferC]

So the easiest way forward would be to move some of the stuff (boot.jl) back into the helpdb file. You can check that everything works locally by rebuilding Julia.

or base/docs/basedocs.jl for things that are tricky due to bootstrap order

Thank you for the feedback! I'm realizing that a PR that touches this many lines of docs is harder to review and more likely to end up with merge conflicts. So, I'm going to break this PR up into a few smaller PR's.

I'll assume this was superseded by the smaller PRs; reopen if not.
