* Make clearer inline code blocks in language reference paragraphs This commit makes the inline code blocks within paragraphs standout against the descriptive text. The code blocks within tables are left un-styled. The line-height of the paragraphs has been set to 1.7 based on recommendations from MDN Web Docs and W3C. The value is unitless based on the recommendation. Closes #9316, #6313 * Make clearer inline code blocks in language reference paragraphs Goal: To improve legibility of inline code blocks in the language reference. This commit alters the styles of code HTML elements in paragraphs, unordered lists, ordered lists, tables, and preformatted text elements. Most of the changes here are taken from suggestions from @dbandstra on GitHub in response to a code review. * p, ul, ol, but not #toc are set to the same line-height * p, ul, ol, and table have the same inline code styles * The inline code background color set to match the preformatted code blocks in the light theme and dark theme. The border colors are adjusted as well. * The preformatted code block font size is set to default. The 12pt setting was removed. The line-height of paragraphs is set to 1.5. This value is chosen based on recommendations from W3C [1] via MDN Web Docs [2] and the contents of the language reference. The MDN Web Docs offers two recommendations: 1. Use a unitless number for line-height. 2. Use a minimum value of 1.5 for main paragraph content.

In this commit, the line-height is now set in the `#contents` ID and reset to normal for preformatted code blocks. This change better separates lines of all main content text for legibility. Closes: #9316, #6313 * Style the language reference code elements This commit sets the style of the HTML code element. Since preformatted code blocks have an overriding style, this is safe to set for all inline code elements.

The ultimate goal of the Zig project is to serve users. As a first-order effect, this means users of the compiler, helping programmers to write better software. Even more important, however, are the end-users.
Zig is intended to be used to help end-users accomplish their goals. Zig should be used to empower end-users, never to exploit them financially, or to limit their freedom to interact with hardware or software in any way.
However, such problems are best solved with social norms, not with software licenses. Any attempt to complicate the software license of Zig would risk compromising the value Zig provides.
Therefore, Zig is available under the MIT (Expat) License, and comes with a humble request: use it to make software better serve the needs of end-users.
This project redistributes code from other projects, some of which have other licenses besides MIT. Such licenses are generally similar to the MIT license for practical purposes. See the subdirectories and files inside lib/ for more details.
