Cycle error in 3.5.1 and missing docs #1494

Describe the bug

I do get a loops-cycle-error in my deploy code. I think I understand the cause of it because I use some loops. The problem is, that all documentation related to that error which should be here as per the pyinfra error message:

https://docs.pyinfra.com/en/latest/deploy-process.html#loops-cycle-errors

was removed in the 3.x branch with 236d7fe. And I am wondering if that was a mistake, because it seems the ordering in the DAG is still relevant. If that is the case, it would be prudent to restore the original documentation for that because any nontrivial setup will use loops sooner or later.

On a sidenote: The search functionality for the docs is woefully inadequate. For example searching for "loop" does not yield any relevant results, despite numerous appearances of the word "loop" in the api reference for the host module.
