doc,tools: syntax highlight api docs at compile-time

Prior to this commit, API docs would be highlighted after the page loaded using `highlightjs`. This commit still uses `highlightjs`, but runs the generation during the compilation of the documentation, making it so no script needs to load on the client. This results in a faster load, as well as allowing the pages to fully functional even when JavaScript is turned off.
