[vcpkg docs] Check for documentation generation in CI (#14614)
* [vcpkg docs] Change how documenting port functions works

Instead of using `##`, use comment blocks for documentation.

Also, add some minor docs and change RST -> MD
so we actually get docs generated.

* add CI stuff

* regenerate docs

* fix vcpkg_find_acquire_program to not use _execute_process

# vcpkg_check_linkage
Asserts the available library and CRT linkage options for the port.
## Usage
```cmake
vcpkg_check_linkage(
[ONLY_STATIC_LIBRARY | ONLY_DYNAMIC_LIBRARY]
[ONLY_STATIC_CRT | ONLY_DYNAMIC_CRT]
)
```
## Parameters
### ONLY_STATIC_LIBRARY
Indicates that this port can only be built with static library linkage.
### ONLY_DYNAMIC_LIBRARY
Indicates that this port can only be built with dynamic/shared library linkage.
### ONLY_STATIC_CRT
Indicates that this port can only be built with static CRT linkage.
### ONLY_DYNAMIC_CRT
Indicates that this port can only be built with dynamic/shared CRT linkage.
## Notes
This command will either alter the settings for `VCPKG_LIBRARY_LINKAGE` or fail, depending on what was requested by the user versus what the library supports.
