Note that all template directories are relative to the `CustomPath` configuration, not a `custom` directory inside it (#14399)

* Note that all template directories are relative to the `CustomPath` configuration, not a `custom` directory inside it.

This is a minor clarification, which makes locating where the templates need to be much easier

* Note that it's possible to read the `GITEA_CUSTOM` value from the admin

* Use "$GITEA_CUSTOM" as placeholder

It's more obvious it's a variable and not a typo

### Adding links and tabs
