[doc] Update "Get Started" page for ORT web (#19568)
### Description
This PR re-arranges documentation of ORT web.

Current doc: https://onnxruntime.ai/docs/
Change preview: https://fs-eire.github.io/onnxruntime/docs/

- split `Doc -> Get Started -> JavaScript` from single page into
multiple pages, to make it easier to split from web, node and
react-native
- remove `Doc -> Get Started -> with Web`. The page was a few links and
now they are moved to other places
- add a few contents into `Doc -> Get Started -> JavaScript -> Web`. Now
this is the main page for ORT web doc.
- rename `Tutorials -> deploy on Web` to `Tutorials -> Web`. "deploy" is
confusing as it's not the accurate term to describe the content.

### ORT web documentation work item list:

- [ ] Update `Get Started` page for ORT web at onnxruntime.ai **( this
PR )**
    - to make it easier for users to navigate
- [ ] Update `Tutorials` page for ORT web at onnxruntime.ai
- The purpose of this page is unclear. It contains descriptive
information and step-by-step instructions on an E2E examples. It can be
a good Blog, but not good for documentation, which usually has a
well-structured content.
- The [index
page](https://fs-eire.github.io/onnxruntime/docs/tutorials/web/) has
duplicated contents with its child page ["Build a web application with
ONNX
Runtime"](https://fs-eire.github.io/onnxruntime/docs/tutorials/web/build-web-app.html)
    - Some contents are out-of-dated.
- [ ] Update [`API Usage -
SessionOptions`](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime-inference-examples/tree/main/js/api-usage_session-options)
on onnxruntime-inference-examples repo.
- Add explaination and examples if necessary for all new WebGPU session
options.
- [ ] Update [`API usage - ort.env
flags`](https://github.com/microsoft/onnxruntime-inference-examples/blob/main/js/api-usage_ort-env-flags)
on onnxruntime-inference-examples repo.
    - Add all newly introduced flags.

# Get started with ONNX Runtime Web
## Contents
{: .no_toc }
* TOC placeholder
{:toc}
## Install
Use the following command in shell to install ONNX Runtime Web:
```bash
# install latest release version
npm install onnxruntime-web
# install nightly build dev version
npm install onnxruntime-web@dev
```
## Import
Use the following JavaScript code to import ONNX Runtime Web:
```js
// use ES6 style import syntax (recommended)
import * as ort from 'onnxruntime-web';
```
```js
// or use CommonJS style import syntax
const ort = require('onnxruntime-web');
```
If you want to use ONNX Runtime Web with WebGPU support (experimental feature), you need to import as below:
```js
// use ES6 style import syntax (recommended)
import * as ort from 'onnxruntime-web/webgpu';
```
```js
// or use CommonJS style import syntax
const ort = require('onnxruntime-web/webgpu');
```
