Docs fix (nerfstudio-project#1244)

* Add the following fixes to documentation:

* Fix trailing backslash in “Use docker image” section
* Replace escaped backslash with double-escaped backslash (see Sphinx issue: sphinx-doc/sphinx#6730)
* Close backtick in `contributing.md`
* Add “run” to instructions for “Render Video”
* Remove unnecessary “,” in “Render Video”
* Correct “before preceding” to “before proceeding”
* Correct “viewpoinrts” to “viewpoints”
* Add missing “.” in “Process data”
* Specify “bash” for code blocks (for consistency with other blocks in the page)
* Fix code block in `viewer_quickstart.rst` (”Copy to clipboard” widget now works)
* Fix some code formatting issues in `export_geometry.md`

* Correct "harmoincs" to "harmonics" in docs.

 ### Render Video
 
-First we must create a path for the camera to follow. This can be done in the viewer under the "RENDER" tab. Orient your 3D view to the location where you wish the video to start, then press "ADD CAMERA". This will set the first camera key frame. Continue to new viewpoints adding additional cameras to create the camera path. We provide other parameters to further refine your camera path. Once satisfied, press "RENDER" which will display a modal that contains the command needed to render the video. Kill the training job (or create a new terminal if you have lots of compute) and the command to generate the video.

 Nerfstudio can also be trained directly from captures from the [Polycam app](https://poly.cam//). This avoids the need to use COLMAP. Polycam's poses are globally optimized which make them more robust to drift (an issue with ARKit or SLAM methods).
 
-To get the best results, try to reduce motion blur as much as possible and try to view the target from as many viewpoinrts as possible. Polycam recommends having good lighting and moving the camera slowly if using auto mode. Or, even better, use the manual shutter mode to capture less blurry images.

 - The container works on Linux and Windows, depending on your OS some additional setup steps might be required to provide access to your GPU inside containers.
-- Paths on Windows use backslash '\\' while unix based systems use a frontslash '/' for paths, where backslashes might require an escape character depending on where they are used (e.g. C:\\\\folder1\\\\folder2...). Ensure to use the correct paths when mounting folders or providing paths as parameters.

Ensure to use the correct paths when mounting folders or providing paths as parameters.
 - Everything inside the container, what is not in a mounted folder (workspace in the above example), will be permanently removed after destroying the container. Always do all your tasks and output folder in workdir!
 - The user inside the container is called 'user' and is mapped to the local user with ID 1000 (usually the first non-root user on Linux systems).
 - The container currently is based on nvidia/cuda:11.7.1-devel-ubuntu22.04, consequently it comes with CUDA 11.7 which must be supported by the nvidia driver. No local CUDA installation is required or will be affected by using the docker image.
