corner of the definitions window, based on the information that check
syntax computes
This commit contains two separate changes to make this work:
- adding a new renderer, based on the text renderer, that
pulls out the contents of the blue boxes and saves them
in the doc/ directories (specifically in the files named
contract-blueboxes.rktd)
- extend check syntax to use and display the information
build by the new renderer
the state that online check syntax uses (indirectly via scribble)
to lookup documentation.
since the kill-safe abstraction moved some computation over to
another thread, the values of various parameters (current-directory
in this case) were not preserved. So when scribble then ended up
resolving a module path with the wrong current directory, this
bad value got cached. Then later, when check syntax tries to figure
out what file to open to jump to it, it got the cached bogus value
(even though current-directory was right when check syntax asked
for the filename).

apparently not triggered on thread death in some cases)
