Régis Behmo 5de7bec029 depr: drop the possibility of overriding edx-platform settings
Previously, it was possible to override settings by defining the
TUTOR_EDX_PLATFORM_SETTINGS environment variable. But let's face it:

- It was not very well supported.
- It was poorly explained.
- It was not very useful.
- It causes unnecessary code complexity.

For these reasons, we drop that feature.

Modifying ``edx-platform`` settings
-----------------------------------
The default settings module loaded by ``edx-platform`` is ``tutor.production`` in production and ``tutor.development`` in development. The folders ``$(tutor config printroot)/env/apps/openedx/settings/lms`` and ``$(tutor config printroot)/env/apps/openedx/settings/cms`` are mounted as ``edx-platform/lms/envs/tutor`` and ``edx-platform/cms/envs/tutor`` inside the docker containers. To modify these settings you must create a plugin that implements one or more of the patch statements in those setting files. See the :ref:`plugin_development_tutorial` tutorial for more information on how to create a plugin.
