This PR adds documentation for various SQL feature additions to Workers Analytics Engine done in RM-24208. There are now too many functions to sensibly put in a single page, so I've broken the SQL Reference documentation out into a page structure which is extensible. I've taken deliberate inspiration from the ClickHouse SQL documentation page structure [1]. WAE's SQL dialect is based on the ClickHouse SQL dialect, and we intend to gradually add more and more functions from CH SQL. Having a similar docs structure will work well for that.

This was suggested by product. There's some functions which have slightly changed (e.g. `quantileExactWeighted`) to support a new alternate form more like ClickHouse. I've not labelled those functions because it's not so important to existing users.
