Joe Vilches 1db7a3ff61 Clean up certain style choices on website's example documentation (#1616)
Summary:
Pull Request resolved: https://github.com/facebook/yoga/pull/1616

This is based on a few comments earlier in the stack and my own discretion on what should change. But I went through all of the examples and changed the following:

* Only add code tick marks in a few cases where it would make sense. Things like `start` and `end`, `undefined` as a value, etc. There ends up not being that many after this. Previously, any property or value was tick marked even if it was more of a concept than actual code. **I replaced those cases with a link to their respective documentation as I feel like this keeps the indication that this is a keyword without labeling it as code**.
* Any reference to "element" was changed to "node"
* Capitalize words that follow a colon
* Run code examples through prettier for consistent style

# Align Items
Align items describes how to align children along the cross axis of their container.
Align items is very similar to [justify content](/docs/styling/justify-content) but instead of
applying to the main axis, align items applies to the cross axis.
**Stretch (default)**: Stretch children of a container to match the [height](/docs/styling/width-height) of the container's cross axis.
**Flex start**: Align children of a container to the start of the container's cross axis.
**Flex end**: Align children of a container to the end of the container's cross axis.
**Center**: Align children of a container in the center of the container's cross axis.
**Baseline**: Align children of a container along a common baseline. Individual children can be set to be the reference baseline for their parents.
# Align Self
Align self has the same options and effect as align items but instead of
affecting the children within a container, you can apply this property to
a single child to change its alignment within its parent. Align self
overrides any option set by the parent with align items.
