Research direction

Open docs/source/utilities/yaml_generator.rst and inspect the outdated GitHub link on the referenced line. Locate the current yaml_templates_generator.py path in httomo-backends, update the link, then rebuild or preview the documentation and verify that it no longer returns a 404.

Description

documentation

The following github link in yaml_generator.rst is outdated and returns a 404 when visiting it in the deployed docs: https://github.com/DiamondLightSource/httomo-backends/blob/a34bf5802fc541ef5a0c541377b000ce596882aa/docs/source/utilities/yaml_generator.rst?plain=1#L5

The link was valid when the yaml_templates_generator.py script was in httomo, but that script has since been moved to httomo-backends.
