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!

{literal} {#language.function.literal}
=========
`{literal}` tags allow a block of data to be taken literally. This is
typically used around Javascript or stylesheet blocks where {curly
braces} would interfere with the template
[delimiter](#variable.left.delimiter) syntax. Anything within
`{literal}{/literal}` tags is not interpreted, but displayed as-is. If
you need template tags embedded in a `{literal}` block, consider using
[`{ldelim}{rdelim}`](#language.function.ldelim) to escape the individual
delimiters instead.
> **Note**
>
> `{literal}{/literal}` tags are normally not necessary, as Smarty
> ignores delimiters that are surrounded by whitespace. Be sure your
> javascript and CSS curly braces are surrounded by whitespace. This is
> new behavior to Smarty 3.
<script>
// the following braces are ignored by Smarty
// since they are surrounded by whitespace
function myFoo {
alert('Foo!');
}
// this one will need literal escapement
{literal}
function myBar {alert('Bar!');}
{/literal}
</script>
