Add a floating help button that directs end users to the project wiki.

to avoid potential issues.

I am still evaluating whether the position of the button (currently to the far end of the screen, ignoring the max-width property of the main container) looks good.

Fix help button position f45e73ef17

Make sure the button is inside the `container' CSS element (to preserve
the horizontal margins of the page, and use `fixed' position instead of
`absolute' to make sure that the help button moves as the user scrolls
the page (if applicable).

Add background color to help button a0133a3db4

In the web app, add some background color to the floating help button so
that text and other elements displaying underneath won't appear under
it.

I went ahead and changed it so that is stays within the margins of that container.

I went ahead and removed the checkbox to test against RTL layouts. Since I have not yet made any tests on RTL layouts, I think it would be better to track that on a separate issue.
