The Wiki on GitHub has newer version of documentation. Still we may have references to the docs folder. Update all pages but also add a notice: See [online wiki](https://github.com/openwrt/luci/wiki/) for latest version. The LAR page is removed because there no any mentions of it anywhere in Luci. This closes #2360 Signed-off-by: Sergey Ponomarev <stokito@gmail.com>

Templates
See online wiki for latest version.
LuCI has a simple regex based template processor which parses HTML-files to Lua functions and allows to store precompiled template files. The simplest form of a template is just an ordinary HTML-file. It will be printed out to the user as is.
In LuCI every template is an object with an own scope
It can therefore be instanced and each instance can have a different scope.
As every template processor. LuCI supports several special markups. Those are enclosed in <% %>-Tags.
By adding - (dash) right after the opening <% every whitespace before the markup will be stripped.
Adding a - right before the closing %> will equivalently strip every whitespace behind the markup.
