Simplify versioning system for user guides

This new approach doesn't require version numbers and make easier for contributors to understand the status
of the document. There are only 3 states:

- Outdated: The page is outdated and might not work as expected
- Untranslated: The page needs to be translated
- Translation outdated: The page is translated, but the original (English) document has been updated

To mark a guide as outdated, we change the boolean of the front matter entry 'outdated' in /resources/user-guides/GUIDE.
If 'False', the guide is updated. If 'True' all versions of the guide (English included) will show a warning at the bottom
of the page.

The other 2 states are related to the status of the translated pages and we control them from the language-specific
user guides: /_i18n/LANG/resources/user-guides/GUIDE. At the top of the page a snippet will include 2 parameters:

- translated: "yes" if the page is translated, "no" if it's not.
- translationOutdated: "yes" if the translation is outdated, "no" if it's not

This new system aims to be simpler than the precedent, avoiding to compare versioning numbers and using a higher level
system instead (yes, no, True, False). I also removed the middle way status 'only minor changes', because if there are
only minor changes that don't affect the usability of the guide, we don't need to point it out.

The old system was complex and people didn't use it. These changes will hopefully make things easier for translators and
other contributors.

Step 1

Download the Current bootstrap from https://downloads.getmonero.org/blockchain.raw; you can skip this step if you are importing the Blockchain from another source.

Step 2

Find the path of your Monero wallet (the folder where you extracted your wallet). For example mine is:

D:\monero-gui-0.10.3.1

Your path may be different depending on where you decided to download your wallet and what version of the Monero wallet you have.

Step 3

Find the path of your downloaded Blockchain for example mine was:

C:\Users\KeeJef\Downloads\blockchain.raw

Yours might be different depending on where you downloaded the Blockchain to.

Step 4

Open a Command Prompt window. You can do this by pressing the Windows key + R, and then typing in the popup box CMD

Step 5

Now you need to navigate using the CMD window to the path of your Monero wallet. You can do this by typing:

cd C:\YOUR\MONERO\WALLET\FILE\PATH\HERE

It should look something like:

cd D:\monero-gui-0.10.3.1

If your Monero wallet is on another drive you can use DriveLetter: for example if your Monero wallet was on your D drive then before using the cd command you would do D:

Step 6

Now type in your command prompt window:

monero-blockchain-import --input-file C:\YOUR\BLOCKCHAIN\FILE\PATH\HERE

For example I would type :

monero-blockchain-import --input-file C:\Users\KeeJef\Downloads\blockchain.raw

If you downloaded the Blockchain from a trusted, reputable source you may set verify 0 this will reduce the amount of time to sync the Blockchain.

Step 7

After the the Blockchain has finished syncing up you can open your Monero wallet normally. Your downloaded blockchain.raw can be deleted.
