ci: remove markddown-exec from docs pipeline (#3482)

This PR removes the following changes:
* notebooks that were converted to markdown
* mkdocs.yml file to reference the ipython notebooks rather than the
markdown files
* Makefile install vercel reverted
* hooks for markdown-exec
* notebook conversion jinja2 templates (for converting notebooks to
markdown exec format)
