Draft: Anchor footer to the bottom of the window (sticky footer)
What does this MR do and why?
On short pages, the page footer can appear in the middle of your browser window since it's positioned relative to the content, not the window.
Ideally the footer appears at the bottom of the window, level with the "Collapse sidebar" toggle, all the time.
This resolves the first task on this issue: #1325 (closed)

How to set up and validate locally
Numbered steps to set up and validate the change are strongly suggested.
-
Configure a local GitLab Docs environment: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-docs/-/blob/main/doc/setup.md. -
Visit some short pages (list here: ) and verify the footer is positioned at the bottom of the page. Visit a few regular long pages as well to check for regressions.
