References to old file paths & options throughout 3.x documentation

Version: 4.0.0 Reporter: Green Egg Media

It appears that the 3.x documentation is still referencing old EE2 paths in many places. For instance, the Moving ExpressionEngine to Another Server section (https://docs.expressionengine.com/latest/operations/moving.html) uses the system/expressionengine/config/config.php path and still makes reference to the old system/expressionengine/config/database.php file, including giving instructions to update the contents of that file.

In the sample code for config.php override of various database settings, the old tmpl_file_basepath config option is shown; however, this option is not listed as a valid config override in the current System Configuration Overrides Documentation (https://docs.expressionengine.com/latest/general/system_configuration_overrides.html).

The System Configuration Overrides page is another example of documentation that still says the main config.php file is located in system/expressionengine/config/.

These documentation errors should be updated to reflect the new file locations and all steps listed in Moving ExpressionEngine to Another Server need to be checked for accuracy.
