Local customizations of site-wide preferences

Info Site-level preferences are located in TWikiPreferences, however this TWikiPreferences prefs topic has override priority and should be used for local customizations. This allows for easier upgrades as you don't need to worry about the shipped preferences clobbering yours. It's easier to keep a handle on if you only copy over the settings you actually change.
