Description

The main Rudder configuration.properties is full of non documented, out-of-date crap that limits a lot the possibility to make insightful choice about what the user should be able to configure.

=> document each option, clean-up no more used properties, etc.

That issue particulary blocks (or at least make even more difficult) #2132

There's an issue with the variable rudder.dir.nodes-promises
The promises deployed on the nodes assume that the promises lies in the /var/rudder/share, and there's nothing (yet) to configure it
However, even if it were configurable, if it changed, nothing would allow the nodes to know that it did, and fetch the new promises at the right place

Actually, there was a parameter for configuring "/var/rudder" part that is also in no use, and the same thing goes for the Rudder System Variable "BASE_FOLDER".

So the cleaned version of properties must take care of that.

There is actually an error in the documentation: inventory history file is actually used for accepted/refused nodes.

This looks correct, thank you Francois. However there might be something related with #2620, but it's not obvious from the code here
