Add Drift Protocol Perpetual connector documentation

Adds the exchange docs page for the Drift Protocol Perpetual connector.

Companion to connector PR hummingbot/hummingbot#8238 (resolves community request hummingbot/hummingbot#6655). Drift is Solana's largest perpetual DEX.

Changes (2 files, additive only):

  • docs/exchanges/drift.md — new exchange page, structure mirrors the existing dydx.md / hyperliquid.md flat-page convention. Content derived from the connector's verified API schemas and the exact ConfigMap prompt strings.
  • mkdocs.yml — one nav line - Drift: exchanges/drift.md (placed between Dexalot and dYdX). Nav is explicit in mkdocs.yml, so a page without this line would not render.

No 🔥 prefix (that prefix is sponsor-only and Drift sponsorship is unverified). All external links in the page were HTTP- and content-verified.

Note: the docs/master/... connector source link will resolve once connector PR #8238 merges; merging this docs PR alongside/after the connector is the intended order.

New docs/exchanges/drift.md for the drift_perpetual connector +
mkdocs.yml nav entry (alpha position between Dexalot and dYdX).

Structure mirrors exchanges/dydx.md (DEX-perp, wallet/gateway-based,
flat .md). Content sourced from the verified Drift Gateway/DLOB API
schemas and the connector's DriftPerpetualConfigMap (exact connect
prompt strings). Documents the gateway-holds-keypair auth model (no
private key entered into Hummingbot) and the standard install (no
special install flag — the connector talks to a self-hosted gateway
over REST/WS, not an in-process SDK).

No Foundation-sponsor tip / no nav 🔥: Drift sponsorship is not
verified. All external links HTTP+content checked 2026-05-17.

Accompanies the drift_perpetual connector PR; not standalone-mergeable
before that connector lands.
