Attachment: Bug 1854327 - [docs] Upgrade Sphinx==6.2.1 + other dependencies, r?#firefox-source-docs-reviewers!

Also remove dependencies that we don't depend on directly. I assume these were
previously added to get a lockfile of sorts, but maintaining our dependencies'
dependencies manually is an excercise in futility.

Let's forget about locking, and if it becomes a problem implement locking into
mach's sites logic.

Depends on D195284

Hey Sylvestre, hope you don't mind if I take this over. For the record, I didn't realize you had patches to do this already (guess we forgot to land them). But my new patch also removes all indirect dependencies, so makes the docs.txt file much cleaner.
