This PR includes documentation that preps for v2 docs (but doesn't introduce new docs). _Note: The number of file changes in the PR is due to find-and-replace within the `references` which is unavoidable. Let me know if I should move it to another PR._ ## Changes - Change Medusa version in base OAS used for v2. - Fix to docblock generator related to not catching all path parameters. - Added typedoc plugin that generates ER Diagrams, which will be used specifically for data model references in commerce modules. - Changed OAS tool to output references in `www/apps/api-reference/specs-v2` directory when the `--v2` option is used. - Added a version switcher to the API reference to switch between V1 and V2. This switcher is enabled by an environment variable, so it won't be visible/usable at the moment. - Upgraded docusaurus to v3.0.1 - Added new Vale rules to ensure correct spelling of Medusa Admin and module names. - Added new components to the `docs-ui` package that will be used in future documentation changes.

| 1 | Medusa Admin allows merchants to manage regions. Regions represent different countries within an ecommerce store. |
Regions Overview
In this document, you’ll get an overview of regions and learn about their importance in your ecommerce store.
Overview
Regions are essential to your ecommerce store. They allow you to specify available currencies, payment providers, fulfillment providers, tax rates, and more for different regions.
Regions represent different countries that your ecommerce store serves customers in. You can combine more than one country in the same region and give them the same settings, or you can create a different region for each country and add settings specific to each of them.
Currencies in Regions
Each region uses one currency. Having more than one region with each having different currencies allows you to set prices and amounts throughout your ecommerce store for each currency. For example, you can specify prices for a product for each currency you support.
How Customers Use Regions
When a customer browses your storefront, they can choose the region based on their location. Then, different pricing, shipping providers, payment providers, and taxes will be available and applied based on the chosen region.
For example, if you have Stripe enabled as a payment provider in a region created for the United States, but have it disabled in a region created for European countries, only customers in the United States region can use Stripe for payment on checkout.
