Add documentation for custom thread and forum types

Adding a custom type currently means reading the install helpers and
handler classes directly. Document registration, phrases, and uninstall
steps so developers can add types without reverse engineering core code.
The guide sat outside the development section, apart from the other
advanced topics, which made it hard to find.
The guide was written as plain Markdown without the advanced concepts
category, and its handler and uninstall examples did not match current
XenForo behavior. Convert it to MDX, add the category, document the
phrase scaffolder, and correct the handler and uninstall steps.

Sorry for the delay on this one too, thanks again for the PR.

As with your CLI command guide, I've rebased it on the current main and reworked it: it now lives under the new Advanced concepts category as MDX, documents the xf-make:phrase scaffolder, and corrects the handler and uninstall examples to match current releases.

How do you like these changes? If you're happy with them, we'll merge.
