Description

Update user guide to include ability to limit the SRS list in the WMS capabilities.

as per GEOS-1830, now its possible to
configure the list of SRS elements sent with a WMS capabilities document.

This may be quite useful for ArcGIS and JavScript clients, since those use to
get bloated by the 3900+ SRS we support.

To do so, one has to go to the contents WMS config page, where there's a text
area called "Limited Capabilities CRS List".
On it you can write a comma separated list of CRS identifiers. You can even
ignore the EPSG: prefix for them.
When submitting the form, geoserver will pick up only the valid ones from the
list and those will be the only ones stated in the WMS getcaps once the
config is applied. Config persistence is implemented too at the WMS service
section in services.xml.
