Jacob Schmidt 8c0e8144e5 docs: Update documentation links and function references
This commit updates the documentation to reflect the current function names and link structure. Specifically, it addresses the following:

*   Corrected internal links within the documentation to point to the correct markdown files (e.g., `hashDelete.md` instead of `hashDelete`).
*   Updated related function references to reflect the current function names and include missing functions.
*   Removed outdated function references.
*   Added `ramdb_db_fnc_scheduler` to related functions where appropriate.
*   Updated the links section to use the correct markdown file names.

# ramdb_db_fnc_save
## Description
Saves the entire database to disk storage. This function persists all data (key-value pairs, hash tables, and lists) to a file, allowing it to be retrieved later even after server restart.
## Syntax
```sqf
[_createBackup] call ramdb_db_fnc_save
```
## Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | Default |
|-----------------|---------|------------------------------------------------|---------|
| `_createBackup` | Boolean | Whether to create a backup of the current state | false |
## Return Value
None. The operation runs synchronously and saves the database immediately.
## Examples
### Save the database without creating a backup:
```sqf
[] call ramdb_db_fnc_save;
```
### Save the database and create a backup:
```sqf
[true] call ramdb_db_fnc_save;
```
### Call the save function remotely from a client:
```sqf
[] remoteExecCall ["ramdb_db_fnc_save", 2, false];
```
## Notes
- This function should be called periodically to ensure data persistence
- The backup feature creates a timestamped copy of the database
- Automatic backups can be configured in the extension's config file
- Saving is a resource-intensive operation, so it shouldn't be called too frequently
- Consider saving before mission end or during low-activity periods
