refactor(project): replace repo api call method with hook and swr
Instead of using post slug and an environment variable to fetch repo data, I use the given repo in each project MDX file. It allows me to fetch data from another user/organization if needed. To make it work, I no longer provide the full URL in MDX file. The new format is: "User/repo-slug". I also replaced the fetch method with SWR to improve caching and to avoid React complaining about cleanup useEffect.
