chore: Update to mkdocs-simple v2.1.2

Note the upstream refactor from mkdocs-simple v1 -> v2 was fairly large, so
  this is a rather larger update than most. And in fact one feature of
  mkdocs-semiliterate (universal markdown extraction) was incorporated into
  mkdocs-simple, so the initialization of this plugin is noticeably simplified
  as a result.

  Also updates mkdocs to 1.4.
