Description

The Starter Content link to the latest released JavaDoc present on the Sling Site. This means that for each starter release we need to update the link and release the module. Instead, we should dynamically obtain it from the running Starter and use it in the links.

The release version should be inferred from the pom.xml version of the Starter module and later exposed as a configuration or something else easily consumable from the home.html.esp script.

There should be a small amount of logic so that we display the latest released version, even if the starter version is a SNAPSHOT one.
