[Bug 70045] Consolidate duplicate content between mod_rewrite ref manual and Rewrite Guide content

https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=70045

--- Comment #1 from Rich Bowen <[email protected]> ---
r1934228 (trunk) addresses the per-directory consolidation portion of this
ticket.

The large "Per-directory Rewrites" note block in mod/mod_rewrite.xml duplicated
content already covered in rewrite/htaccess.xml (prerequisites, RewriteBase,
path stripping, context restrictions, inheritance). Replaced with a short
paragraph linking to the guide.

Useful tips that were unique to that block have been migrated into
rewrite/htaccess.xml:
- "^/ never matches in per-directory context" and the %{REQUEST_URI} workaround
(with example) added to the path-stripping section
- New "Which contexts support rewrite rules?" section clarifying that
<Location>/<Files> are unsupported and <If> follows directory rules

2.4 backport deferred — htaccess.xml differs significantly between branches.

The "What is matched?" duplication (the other half of this ticket) is still
outstanding.
