Update NEL examples and documentation (#5370)
* simplify creation of KB by skipping dim reduction

* small fixes to train EL example script

* add KB creation and NEL training example scripts to example section

* update descriptions of example scripts in the documentation

* moving wiki_entity_linking folder from bin to projects

* remove test for wiki NEL functionality that is being moved
