Remove note about cloning and editing templates
Users should never clone and edit templates. Instead, if they really need to run custom code before or after registration or provisioning workflows, they should use "custom pre" and "custom post" snippets as documented. This way they do not lose support by the community/vendor. Also, there's configuration management. Fixes #4256
