This PR introduces enhancements to the Quickstart layout, providing
users with a more powerful and intuitive experience. Here's what's new:

1. **Filter by Topic** 🧩
   - Users can now filter quickstarts by topics of interest.
- Introduces the `tags` markdown property on quickstarts as an array
where users can specify the desired topics for filtering.

2. **Filter by Level** 📊
   - Quickstarts can be filtered based on their complexity level.
- The `level` property, a string, allows users to set and filter by the
desired level.

3. **Search Bar** 🔍
- A convenient search bar has been added to enable users to quickly find
specific quickstarts.

Additionally, added the `recently_updated` property, a boolean which
when set to true will display an "updated" label on quickstarts that
have been recently modified.

## Loom Walkthrough
https://www.loom.com/share/bce7a1b7ec944e109c0f251bd8566dc3

## Next Steps
This PR adds sample data to each quickstart `tags`, `level`, and
`recently_updated` properties in order to test the functionality. A
seperate PR will need to be opened applying the correct information on
each quickstart.

Any work involved with the
[migration](https://www.notion.so/dbtlabs/Quickstarts-Q3-updates-SOW-b36903d2fffc4320b27a594017010214?pvs=4#b6e72839f3364923b1da7b4b61fb3090)
part of this task can begin to be worked on.

## Must be completed before merging
- [x] `/quickstarts` directory changed to `/guides`
- [ ] Quickstarts updated with correct tagging
- [ ] Migration work completed

-> Changing all string columns to lowercase to create uniformity across data sources typically happens in our dbt project’s [staging models](https://docs.getdbt.com/guides/best-practices/how-we-structure/2-staging). There are a few reasons for that: data cleanup and standardization, such as aliasing, casting, and lowercasing, should ideally happen in staging models to create downstream uniformity. It’s also more performant in downstream models that join on string values to join on strings that are of all the same casing versus having to join and perform lowercasing at the same time.

 That question becomes difficult to answer in large dbt projects. Developers might not follow the same conventions. They might not be aware of past decisions, and reviewing pull requests in git can become more complex. When dbt projects have hundreds of models, it's hard to know which models do not have any tests defined and aren't enforcing your conventions.
