Michael Taylor dcd2f33f7c CODEBASE: Update api-documentor and api-extractor (#2320)
* Update api-documentor and api-extractor. #1566 follow-up.

I have verified that the HTML/markdown table generation bug in
[#4878](https://github.com/microsoft/rushstack/issues/4878) in rushstack
for api-documentor has been fixed as per rushstack#5256. The testcase
[repro](https://github.com/catloversg/api-documenter-bug-pr-4578) now
produces the correct expected output.

I have confirmed that the generated output in bitburner from
`npm run doc` now generated HTML tables, and correctly inserts
a blank line between the </table> and the follow line (e.g. Returns).

Stylisticly it could use some whitespace, but it is correctly rendered.

This commit is only the updated packages, not the updated generated
documentation. I assume that is automatically generated by the GitHub
workflow.

* Follow up to 5f732a6f35, include `npm run doc` changed docs.

* Add missing license info

* Fix React warning

Remarks

RAM cost: 0 GB

Returns a scripts logs. The logs are returned as an array, where each line is an element in the array. The most recently logged line is at the end of the array. Note that there is a maximum number of lines that a script stores in its logs. This is configurable in the games options. If the function is called with no arguments, it will return the current scripts logs.

Otherwise, the PID or filename, hostname/ip, and args… arguments can be used to get logs from another script. Remember that scripts are uniquely identified by both their names and arguments.

Example

//Get logs from foo.js on the current server that was run with no args
ns.getScriptLogs("foo.js");

//Open logs from foo.js on the foodnstuff server that was run with no args
ns.getScriptLogs("foo.js", "foodnstuff");

//Open logs from foo.js on the foodnstuff server that was run with the arguments [1, "test"]
ns.getScriptLogs("foo.js", "foodnstuff", 1, "test");
