Update path related documents (#25417) (#25982)
Backport #25417 by @wxiaoguang

Update WorkPath/WORK_PATH related documents, remove out-dated
information.

Remove "StaticRootPath" on the admin config display page, because few
end user really need it, it only causes misconfiguration.

Make "install page" respect environment config (#25648) (#25799)
Backport #25648

Replace #25580

Fix #19453

The problem was: when users set "GITEA__XXX__YYY" , the "install page"
doesn't respect it.

So, to make the result consistent and avoid surprising end users, now
the "install page" also writes the environment variables to the config
file.

And, to make things clear, there are enough messages on the UI to tell
users what will happen.

There are some necessary/related changes to `environment-to-ini.go`:

* The "--clear" flag is removed and it was incorrectly written there.
The "clear" operation should be done if INSTALL_LOCK=true
* The "--prefix" flag is removed because it's never used, never
documented and it only causes inconsistent behavior.

The only conflict during backport is "ui divider" in
templates/install.tmpl

Use InitWorkPathAndCfgProvider for environment-to-ini to avoid unnecessary checks (#25480) (#25488)
Backport #25480 by @wxiaoguang

Fix #25481

The `InitWorkPathAndCommonConfig` calls `LoadCommonSettings` which does
many checks like "current user is root or not".

Some commands like "environment-to-ini" shouldn't do such check, because
it might be run with "root" user at the moment (eg: the docker's setup
script)

ps: in the future, the docker's setup script should be improved to avoid
Gitea's command running with "root"

Refactor path & config system (#25330) (#25416)
Backport #25330

# The problem

There were many "path tricks":

* By default, Gitea uses its program directory as its work path
* Gitea tries to use the "work path" to guess its "custom path" and
"custom conf (app.ini)"
* Users might want to use other directories as work path
* The non-default work path should be passed to Gitea by GITEA_WORK_DIR
or "--work-path"
* But some Gitea processes are started without these values
    * The "serv" process started by OpenSSH server
    * The CLI sub-commands started by site admin
* The paths are guessed by SetCustomPathAndConf again and again
* The default values of "work path / custom path / custom conf" can be
changed when compiling

# The solution

* Use `InitWorkPathAndCommonConfig` to handle these path tricks, and use
test code to cover its behaviors.
* When Gitea's web server runs, write the WORK_PATH to "app.ini", this
value must be the most correct one, because if this value is not right,
users would find that the web UI doesn't work and then they should be
able to fix it.
* Then all other sub-commands can use the WORK_PATH in app.ini to
initialize their paths.
* By the way, when Gitea starts for git protocol, it shouldn't output
any log, otherwise the git protocol gets broken and client blocks
forever.

The "work path" priority is: WORK_PATH in app.ini > cmd arg --work-path
> env var GITEA_WORK_DIR > builtin default

The "app.ini" searching order is: cmd arg --config > cmd arg "work path
/ custom path" > env var "work path / custom path" > builtin default


## ⚠️ BREAKING

If your instance's "work path / custom path / custom conf" doesn't meet
the requirements (eg: work path must be absolute), Gitea will report a
fatal error and exit. You need to set these values according to the
error log.
