5a440843b6 Problem: No log rotation when BigchainDB and Tendermint started with Monit (#2528)
* Log rotation for tendermint and BigchainDB using Monit

* Change file size from 100KB used for testing to 200 MB for test envs

* Add docs for log rotation

* remove --consensus.create_empty_blocks from monit start

Because already taken care of in the config file

* do not run bigchaindb with debug flag instead use config file

* Address comments I

- Rephrase log rotation to imply monit is not default
- Add statement to explain where bigchaindb log files are created
- Fix HTML comment
- Add log rotation to index

* Address comments II

c79848d66a Problem: Docs say install highest Tendermint version (#2524)
Solution: Change the docs to recommend installing a specific Tendermint version.
Also update our release process so we change that version number before a release, if necessary.
