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.

Taxes Overview
In this document, you’ll get an overview of taxes in Medusa and learn about their importance in your ecommerce store.
Overview
Taxes in Medusas are directly associated with Regions. As regions and countries often have different tax rates and rules, Medusa supports specifying the tax rate for each region.
Taxes are calculated for products and shipping methods on checkout. Medusa provides a default tax provider to calculate the taxes, and merchants and developers can also integrate custom tax providers for advanced calculation of taxes.
How are Taxes Created
Once a region is created, a default tax rate is created for that region. You can specify the rate and code of the tax rate during the creation of the region.
This also means that tax rates are deleted when a region is deleted.
Customizing Tax Rates
A region’s default tax rate is applied for all products and shipping options. You can also have more customized tax rates.
Adding tax rates alongside the default one allows you to override the prices of specific products, product types, or shipping options. This further increase the customization capabilities of your ecommerce store.
