ChuckandClaude Opus 4.6 1d31465df0 docs: fix WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE and WIFI_NETWORK_SETUP
WEB_INTERFACE_GUIDE.md
- Web UI port: 5050 -> 5000 (4 occurrences)
- Tab list was almost entirely fictional. Documented tabs:
  General Settings, Display Settings, Durations, Sports Configuration,
  Plugin Management, Plugin Store, Font Management. None of these
  exist. Real tabs (verified in web_interface/templates/v3/base.html:
  935-1000): Overview, General, WiFi, Schedule, Display, Config Editor,
  Fonts, Logs, Cache, Operation History, plus Plugin Manager and
  per-plugin tabs in the second nav row. Rewrote the navigation
  section, the General/Display/Plugin sections, and the Common Tasks
  walkthroughs to match.
- Quick Actions list referenced "Test Display" button (doesn't exist).
  Replaced with the real button list verified in
  partials/overview.html:88-152: Start/Stop Display, Restart Display
  Service, Restart Web Service, Update Code, Reboot, Shutdown.
- API endpoints used /api/* paths. The api_v3 blueprint mounts at
  /api/v3 (web_interface/app.py:144), so the real paths are
  /api/v3/config/main, /api/v3/system/status, etc. Fixed.
- Removed bogus "Sports Configuration tab" walkthrough; sports
  favorites live inside each scoreboard plugin's own tab now.
- Plugin directory listed as /plugins/. Real default is plugin-repos/
  (verified in config/config.template.json:130 and
  display_controller.py:132); plugins/ is a fallback.
- Removed "Swipe navigation between tabs" mobile claim (not implemented).

WIFI_NETWORK_SETUP.md
- 21 occurrences of port 5050 -> 5000.
- All /api/wifi/* curl examples used the wrong path. The real wifi
  API routes are at /api/v3/wifi/* (api_v3.py:6367-6609). Fixed.
- ap_password default was documented as "" (empty/open network) but
  config/wifi_config.json ships with "ledmatrix123". Updated the
  Quick Start, Configuration table, AP Mode Settings section, and
  Security Recommendations to match. Also clarified that setting
  ap_password to "" is the way to make it an open network.

ChuckandClaude Opus 4.6 2a7a318cf7 docs: refresh and correct stale documentation across repo
Walked the README and docs/ tree against current code and fixed several
real bugs and many stale references. Highlights:

User-facing
- README.md: web interface install instructions referenced
  install_web_service.sh at the repo root, but it actually lives at
  scripts/install/install_web_service.sh.
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: every web UI port reference said 5050, but
  the real server in web_interface/start.py:123 binds 5000. Same bug
  was duplicated in docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md (17 occurrences). Fixed
  both.
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: rewrote tab-by-tab instructions. The doc
  referenced "Plugin Store", "Plugin Management", "Sports Configuration",
  "Durations", and "Font Management" tabs - none of which exist. Real
  tabs (verified in web_interface/templates/v3/base.html) are: Overview,
  General, WiFi, Schedule, Display, Config Editor, Fonts, Logs, Cache,
  Operation History, Plugin Manager (+ per-plugin tabs).
- docs/GETTING_STARTED.md: removed references to a "Test Display"
  button (doesn't exist) and "Show Now" / "Stop" plugin buttons. Real
  controls are "Run On-Demand" / "Stop On-Demand" inside each plugin's
  tab (partials/plugin_config.html:792).
- docs/TROUBLESHOOTING.md: removed dead reference to
  troubleshoot_weather.sh (doesn't exist anywhere in the repo); weather
  is now a plugin in ledmatrix-plugins.

Developer-facing
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: documented draw_image() doesn't exist
  on DisplayManager. Real plugins paste onto display_manager.image
  directly (verified in src/base_classes/{baseball,basketball,football,
  hockey}.py). Replaced with the canonical pattern.
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: documented cache_manager.delete() doesn't
  exist. Real method is clear_cache(key=None). Updated the section.
- docs/PLUGIN_API_REFERENCE.md: added 10 missing BasePlugin methods that
  the doc never mentioned: dynamic-duration hooks, live-priority hooks,
  and the full Vegas-mode interface.
- docs/PLUGIN_DEVELOPMENT_GUIDE.md: same draw_image fix.
- docs/DEVELOPMENT.md: corrected the "Plugin Submodules" section. Plugins
  are NOT git submodules - .gitmodules only contains
  rpi-rgb-led-matrix-master. Plugins are installed at runtime into the
  plugins directory configured by plugin_system.plugins_directory
  (default plugin-repos/). Both internal links in this doc were also
  broken (missing relative path adjustment).
- docs/HOW_TO_RUN_TESTS.md: removed pytest-timeout from install line
  (not in requirements.txt) and corrected the test/integration/ path
  (real integration tests are at test/web_interface/integration/).
  Replaced the fictional file structure diagram with the real one.
- docs/EMULATOR_SETUP_GUIDE.md: clone URL was a placeholder; default
  pixel_size was documented as 16 but emulator_config.json ships with 5.

Index
- docs/README.md: rewrote. Old index claimed "16-17 files after
  consolidation" but docs/ actually has 38 .md files. Four were missing
  from the index entirely (CONFIG_DEBUGGING, DEV_PREVIEW,
  PLUGIN_ERROR_HANDLING, STARLARK_APPS_GUIDE). Trimmed the navel-gazing
  consolidation/statistics sections.

Out of scope but worth flagging:
- src/plugin_system/resource_monitor.py:343 and src/common/api_helper.py:287
  call cache_manager.delete(key) but no such method exists on
  CacheManager. Both call sites would AttributeError at runtime if hit.
  Not fixed in this docs PR - either add a delete() shim or convert
  callers to clear_cache().
