Summary:                    Template examples in documentation imply well
defined overriding semantics, but this is not true
Description: 
tex/configuration.tex includes an example of template use that only makes
sense if there are guaranteed semantics for overriding of template
definitions by the definitions in the template user (specifically host is
overridden in a sip.conf example).  However,
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=15410 was rejected on the
grounds that no such semantics exist.  The documentation needs to be
changed to remove these overriding examples and to give positive warnings
that there are no guaranteed overriding semantics.
