[xwiki-users] hide documentation link

Doesn't make sense.  With that preference set, no unauthenticated user
should be able to edit anything.

Displaying or not displaying the links shouldn't make any difference
either.

Are you sure the users have not authenticated?  Tossing the all the
cookies from your XWiki host in the user's browser will assure this.
