Julien GouxandIvan Vasilov 7b08726d3a docs(cli): document OrioleDB initialization and db.orioledb_version (#50908)
Document `supabase init --use-orioledb` in the CLI reference. Add
`db.orioledb_version` to the CLI config reference, and mark
`experimental.orioledb_version` as deprecated.

This complements the general OrioleDB beta guide update in #50813.

Companion CLI PR: https://github.com/supabase/cli/pull/6828, released in
[v2.119.0](https://github.com/supabase/cli/releases/tag/v2.119.0).

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Documentation**
* Documented the `supabase init --use-orioledb` option, which sets the
OrioleDB image version in `supabase/config.toml`.
* Added configuration guidance for `db.orioledb_version`, including its
PostgreSQL version requirements.
* Marked `experimental.orioledb_version` as deprecated and directed
users to `db.orioledb_version`. The CLI continues to read the
experimental setting and warns when it is set.

Supabase Reference Docs

Maintainers

If you are a maintainer of any tools in the Supabase ecosystem, you can use this site to provide documentation for the tools & libraries that you maintain.

DocSpec

We use documentation specifications which can be used to generate human-readable docs.

  • OpenAPI: for documenting API endpoints.
  • SDKSpec (custom to Supabase): for SDKs and client libraries.
  • ConfigSpec (custom to Supabase): for configuration options.
  • CLISpec (custom to Supabase): for CLI commands and usage.

The benefit of using custom specifications is that we can generate many other types from a strict schema (eg, HTML and manpages). It also means that we can switch to any documentation system we want. On this site we use Next.js, but on Supabase's official website, we use a custom React site and expose only a subset of the available API for each tool.
