document that dom0 never updates templates

[adrelanos]

Templates are intentionally never upgraded on qubes-dom0-update because then all user modifications to the template would be lost. I don't think this is documented somewhere yet? The usual way to update the templates is from within the templates. And if someone wants intentionally get rid of users changes and install a newer template version, the old one has to be uninstalled using yum first.

Wondering where should it be mentioned. Perhaps here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/
or maybe here: https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/software-update-vm/
Where would you look for such information?

Anyhow. That page could do.

Not sure if people would find it. But I would primarily use it to direct users to it once the topic comes up somewhere. Better to have a good canonical documentation than investing time to reciting it.
