    Store the docs database as fixtures instead of an sqlite database.

    The docs database was painful to merge and update, and sometimes stray
    items (from operations that deal with in-database caches) would get
    committed. It also outright failed when there were evolutions that
    needed to be applied, always.

    Now, building any docs target for the manual will rebuild the docs db
    from a fixture, if the fixture has changed or if the database is
    missing. When adding new items to the database, a modified docs.db can
    be dumped using ./scripts/dumpdata.sh.

    This should help going forward with some annoyances with our docs
    builds.

    Deleted the database and built the docs. Did that again a couple more times.
