fix: issue2551347 - make _generic.help.html work without property settings This lets the classhelp() method run in read only mode to provide information on a Link property without updating the property. Updating the property can be done by selecting the proper value using the drop-down. Update classic and minimal templates to allow this to work. Update upgrading and reference docs.

+Update for _generic.help.html (optional)
+----------------------------------------
+
+Using the ``_generic.help.html`` template with ``classhelper()`` to
+provide information on a property without selecting a property caused
+an error when processing the template. Using the help template with
+Link properties can provide description or other information that the
+user can use to determine the right setting.
+
+If your tracker is based on the minimal or classic tracker and you have
+not changed the _generic.help.html file, you can copy it into place
+from the template directory.
