Snapshots all four versioned Docusaurus sections at v6.1.0. Built on top of the version-cutting tooling work in chore/docs-cut-6.1.0-versions so the snapshot benefits from: - Auto-gen refresh before snapshotting (database pages from engine spec metadata, API reference from openapi.json, component pages from Storybook stories) — captured at the SHA we cut from rather than whatever happened to be on disk. - Data-import freeze: country list, feature flag table, database diagnostics, and component metadata are copied into snapshot-local `_versioned_data/` dirs so the historical version doesn't silently mutate when the source files change. - Depth-aware import-path rewriter that handles deeply-nested component MDX files referencing `../../../src/` from the snapshot. Versioning behavior: `lastVersion` stays at `current` for every section, so the canonical URLs (`/docs/...`, `/admin-docs/...`, `/developer-docs/...`, `/components/...`) continue to render content from master. The `current` version is consistently labeled "Next" with an `unreleased` banner, and `6.1.0` is a historical pin accessible only via its explicit version segment. Component playground: previously `disabled: true` in versions-config.json, now enabled and versioned. The plugin block in docusaurus.config.ts was already gated only by the `disabled` flag, so no other code changes were needed to bring it back online. The frozen `databases.json` in the snapshot is the canonical 80-database artifact from the latest committed state in master (preserved by the generator's input-hash cache), not a fallback regenerated from a local Flask environment.
