Proposal: Automate API Descriptions Update via GitHub Action

[Bashamega]

Hello @saschanaz,

The inputfiles/mdn/apiDescriptions.json file is outdated and has not been maintained for the past five years. To ensure that we have up-to-date API descriptions, I propose implementing a weekly GitHub Action that:

• Scrapes the relevant MDN documentation
• Generates an updated JSON file
• Automatically opens a pull request with the latest data

I have reviewed MDN’s [robots.txt](https://developer.mozilla.org/robots.txt) file, and it explicitly allows robots to scrape en-US/docs/Web/API, which covers the pages we need.

I would be happy to take on this task and contribute the necessary implementation.

Reference: #1909

Looking forward to your thoughts!

Yeah, back in the days we had to fetch the full HTML, parse that to extract the phrases and convert it to markdown. Nowadays we have https://github.com/mdn/content directly in markdown so we can skip a lot of steps here. PR welcome.

I think we should import MDN content directly rather than having apiDescriptions.json.

Sure, I will do that
