consistency: use _variables.yml more extensively #212

I think we have quite some redundancy when it comes to links and should make more extensive use of variables (see Quarto docs).

basically, I would go through the entire book and gradually replace links etc. with relevant variables. as a rule of thumb: any information that is repeated multiple times in different places could be put into a variable.
