Mark Otto 0e920ce3f4 Reorganize docs for easier deploys
With the current docs directory setup, I'm making too many mistakes and have to manually address path changes and directory moves on deploy. This makes for a frustrating experience developing locally and shipping releases. With this PR, we're basically back to the same setup from v3—duplicating the dist directory into our docs directory. Not the most ideal, but very straightforward for me as the release manager.

## Example
{% capture example %}
<nav aria-label="breadcrumb">
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li class="breadcrumb-item active" aria-current="page">Home</li>
</ol>
</nav>
<nav aria-label="breadcrumb">
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li class="breadcrumb-item"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li class="breadcrumb-item active" aria-current="page">Library</li>
</ol>
</nav>
<nav aria-label="breadcrumb">
<ol class="breadcrumb">
<li class="breadcrumb-item"><a href="#">Home</a></li>
<li class="breadcrumb-item"><a href="#">Library</a></li>
<li class="breadcrumb-item active" aria-current="page">Data</li>
</ol>
</nav>
{% endcapture %}
{% include example.html content=example %}
## Changing the separator
Separators are automatically added in CSS through [`::before`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/::before) and [`content`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/content). They can be changed by changing `$breadcrumb-divider`. The [quote](https://sass-lang.com/documentation/Sass/Script/Functions.html#quote-instance_method) function is needed to generate the quotes around a string, so if you want `>` as seperator, you can use this:
```scss
$breadcrumb-divider: quote(">");
```
It's also possible to use a **base64 embedded SVG icon**:
```scss
$breadcrumb-divider: url(data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciIHdpZHRoPSI4IiBoZWlnaHQ9IjgiPjxwYXRoIGQ9Ik0yLjUgMEwxIDEuNSAzLjUgNCAxIDYuNSAyLjUgOGw0LTQtNC00eiIgZmlsbD0iY3VycmVudENvbG9yIi8+PC9zdmc+);
```
The separator can be removed by setting `$breadcrumb-divider` to `none`:
```scss
$breadcrumb-divider: none;
```
## Accessibility
Since breadcrumbs provide a navigation, it's a good idea to add a meaningful label such as `aria-label="breadcrumb"` to describe the type of navigation provided in the `<nav>` element, as well as applying an `aria-current="page"` to the last item of the set to indicate that it represents the current page.
For more information, see the [WAI-ARIA Authoring Practices for the breadcrumb pattern](https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/#breadcrumb).
