Proposed change

The hass command-line tool documentation page was specific to the deprecated Home Assistant Core installation type. With that installation method removed, this page and all references to it are obsolete.

Changes:

  • Deleted source/_docs/tools/hass.markdown
  • Removed navigation menu entry in docs_sitemap.html
  • Updated glossary HASS term definition to align with style guidelines (removed link, removed command-line tool reference, clarified that HASS abbreviation is no longer actively used, and recommended using the full name "Home Assistant" instead of abbreviations)
  • Updated trivia.markdown to align with style guidelines (removed "HA" abbreviation reference, clarified that hass was commonly used in the past but it's now recommended to use the full name "Home Assistant" in documentation)
  • Removed link from 2017-10-28-demo.markdown while preserving context

All 4 references to /docs/tools/hass/ have been removed from the codebase. Content updated to align with style guidelines that recommend using the full "Home Assistant" name instead of abbreviations like "HA" or "HASS".

Type of change

  • Removed stale or deprecated documentation.

It seems that this PR is targeted against an incorrect branch since it has a parent PR on one of our codebases. Documentation that needs to be updated for an upcoming release should target the next branch. Please change the target branch of this PR to next and rebase if needed.
