Reference content bundled with Arduino IDE is very outdated #8860

Description

@per1234

The Arduino IDE comes with a copy of the Arduino Language Reference and some library reference pages. These are used to provide documentation accessed via Help > Reference and the context menu's "Find in Reference".

The Arduino Language Reference content is at least 1.5 years out of date.

The library reference pages appear to be ~2 years out of date at least, since this change made Jul 17, 2017 is not present: #6507
I didn't check back farther than that.

Since that time, many updates, corrections, and improvements have been made to the reference content. These files should be updated on every release of the Arduino IDE.
