Reorg multiple sections
consolidate what you can/can't do to the schema into one section and
move to the top of the Tracker Schema section.. Also outline how you
*can* change the type of a property.
In the "Classes and Properties - creating a new information store
section", add new Method subsection after Properties subsection. Place
all 4 method sections in there moving them from below.
Move IssueClass section before FileClass section because IssueClass
incorporates links to FileClass not the other way around.
Fix indexes.

========================= Roundup Tracker Templates ========================= The templates distributed with Roundup are stored in the "share" directory nominated by Python. On Unix this is typically ``/usr/share/roundup/templates/`` (or ``/usr/local/share...``) and on Windows this is ``c:\python27\share\roundup\templates\``. The template loading looks in four places to find the templates: 1. *share* - eg. ``<prefix>/share/roundup/templates/*``. This should be the standard place to find them when Roundup is installed running setup.py from source. 2. ``install_dir``/../<prefix>/share/....``, where prefix is the Python's ``sys.prefix``. ``sys.base_prefix`` or `sys.base_prefix/local``. This finds templates (and locales) installed by pip. E.G. in a virtualenv located at (``sys.prefix``): ``/tools/roundup``, roundup would be at: ``/tools/roundup/lib/python3.6/site-packages/roundup``. The templates would be at: ``/tools/roundup/lib/python3.6/site-packages/tools/roundup/share/roundup/templates/``. 3. ``<roundup.admin.__file__>/../../share/roundup/templates/*``. This will be used if Roundup's run in the distro (aka. source) directory. 4. ``<current working dir>/*``. This is for when someone unpacks a 3rd-party template. 5. ``<current working dir>``. This is for someone who "cd"s to the 3rd-party template dir. Templates contain: - modules ``schema.py`` and ``initial_data.py`` - directories ``html``, ``detectors`` and ``extensions`` (with appropriate contents) - optional ``config_ini.ini`` file. It is structured like a tracker's ``config.ini`` but contains only headers (e.g. ``[main]``) and *required* parameters that are different from defaults: e.g. ``template_engine = jinja2`` and ``static_files = static``. These settings override the default values saved to the tracker's ``config.ini``. - template "marker" file ``TEMPLATE-INFO.txt``, which contains the name of the template, a description of the template and its intended audience. An example TEMPLATE-INFO.txt:: Name: classic Description: This is a generic issue tracker that may be used to track bugs, feature requests, project issues or any number of other types of issues. Most users of Roundup will find that this template suits them, with perhaps a few customisations. Intended-For: All first-time Roundup users
