The auth_dev authentication module was accidentaly enabled by default in configuration file shipped with Mentat packages. It was changed at some point locally during development and the change was accidentally committed. The documentation was missing the warning about disabling it during installation in production deployment. This is fixed now.

To be consistent with the rest of the system. SQLAlchemy ORM model does not allow to specify ALTER TABLE commands for models. Therefore it would be necessary to run migrations after clean installation, which could cause chaos and troubles with schema versions and stamping. I have moved the cluster commands to database optimization documentation, which is where they belong. (Redmine issue: #6096)

By this move we attempt to speed up the searching process and lower the usage of system resources, because the amount of data the database engine needs to load and process will be significantly smaller. (Redmine issue: #4274,#4275)

JSON response could be really large in some scenarios, we have encountered objects 40MB large. Since the user is interested only in 'statistics' subkey, it is unnecessary to mae him download all the raw data as well.

* Added missing documentation pages for some Hawat plugins.
* Improved documentation of 'events' plugin.
* Few other minor documentation tweaks.

Sometimes the downtime due to the upgrade or error can be noticable to the users, so the well behaving application should have some kind of maintenance mode to inform the users. This commit contains simple web page with capabilites of variable substitutions (to insert separately generated timestamps about the duration of the downtime), an example site configuration for Apache web server and updated documentation page about sustem upgrade.
