Docs/mermaid

Description

In #953 (see https://github.com/FlexMeasures/flexmeasures/pull/953#discussion_r1479405353) we saw we would like to start using Mermaid in our docs.

I have tried that, following the instructions at https://github.com/mgaitan/sphinxcontrib-mermaid, but I could not get mermaid to build anything (yes, I ran pip install sphinxcontrib-mermaid, and I also tried the simple example diagram from their website).

Look & Feel

Running make update-docs and then going to Concepts -> The FlexMeasures Data Model should show a diagram.

How to test

In addition to the local test above, this should also work on ReadTheDocs.

The current PR description suggests a tech spike with a negative outcome. What's the next decision to be taken to advance the state of this PR?

I don't know. Maybe someone has a bit of knowledge of mermaid and/or Sphinx and wants to pick this up. It would be nice to use mermaid diagrams in our docs, but not a blocker.
