[WWW/DOC] _sass/_base.scss: use of obsolete .slash() function.

[cederom]

While building the local preview of the website jekyll serve complains about invalid use of .slash() function. Some remarks on removing .slash() here jekyll/minima#709.

Using:

• clean Gemfile.lock.
• rubygem-jekyll-4.3.2_1 system package.
• rubygem-jekyll-sass-converter-2.2.0 system package.
• rubygem-jekyll-feed-0.17.0 system package.
• FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE AMD64.

Detailed output below:

I got into details of nuttx-website a bit and I am wondering if we really need to use RubyGems to create such a simple www. We could go simple static HTML website and that would remove dependencies and build problems completely.
