azett 52bf429a01 Replaced Smarty 2.6.31-dev with v 4.0.4, keeping the FP-specific Smarty plugins.
Updated calls to current Smarty API (register_function()/register_modifier()/register_block() -> registerPlugin(); assign_by_ref() -> assignByRef()).
Fixed file includes in templates with quotes.
Removed SmartyValidate.class.php includes.

Still work in progress as some errors still appear!

{extends} {#language.function.extends}
=========
`{extends}` tags are used in child templates in template inheritance for
extending parent templates. For details see section of [Template
Interitance](#advanced.features.template.inheritance).
- The `{extends}` tag must be on the first line of the template.
- If a child template extends a parent template with the `{extends}`
tag it may contain only `{block}` tags. Any other template content
is ignored.
- Use the syntax for [template resources](#resources) to extend files
outside of the [`$template_dir`](#variable.template.dir) directory.
> **Note**
>
> When extending a variable parent like `{extends file=$parent_file}`,
> make sure you include `$parent_file` in the
> [`$compile_id`](#variable.compile.id). Otherwise Smarty cannot
> distinguish between different `$parent_file`s.
