Update wiki and templates

[vtikha]

@valegagge pointed out that we should update the manual containing the robots configuration information and the templates

Just for reference, this is indeed quite precious information on the configuration of the low level boards (including for example documentation for each parameter of the xml file corresponding to each board, for example

robots-configuration/iCubTemplates/iCubTemplateV3_0/hardware/electronics/body_part--ebX-jA_B-eln.xml

Line 63 in f3fef42

<!-- The period in multiples of RUNNINGMODE::period with which the ETH boards transmits the regular ROPs. Its range is [1, 20] and if out of bound it is clipped to limits.

robots-configuration/iCubTemplates/iCubTemplateV3_0/hardware/electronics/pc104.xml

Line 28 in f3fef42

<!-- The period in milliseconds of the thread EthReceiver which extracts and decode all UDP packest received from the ETH boards. Its range is [1, 20].

and

robots-configuration/iCubTemplates/iCubTemplateV3_0/hardware/FT/body_part-ebX-strain.xml

Line 70 in f3fef42

<param name="acquisitionRate"> 10 </param>

) that is not easy to find for users of the robot. Today I showed this doc to @GiulioRomualdi and @isorrentino that had no idea about it.

Hi,
I'd like to point out that now we are using the configuration file version 6, but the templates have not been updated.
Could we update them?

@traversaro: Maybe we could add the information of the templates in the readme file in order to make such information more accessible to everybody.

Good idea! Probably it also make sense to link it somehow from https://github.com/icub-tech-iit/documentation .

This is a good point that will be addressed by @valegagge in a second step.
