Now Kubernetes dashboard uses the compatible version to the K8s clust…

…er - the version is therefore also templated. Also reworked RBAC dashboard Role & RoleBinding to ClusterRole and ClusterRoleBinding. Commented out the heapster resources. Granted dashboard administrative rights.

+Installation: /~https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Installation#recommended-setup (don´t use kubectl proxy!)

+Access: Through API-Server: /~https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Accessing-Dashboard---1.6.X-and-below#api-server
+
+> In case Kubernetes API server is exposed and accessible from outside you can directly access dashboard at:

+
+Grant Dashboard Admin-Rights: /~https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard/wiki/Access-control#admin-privileges
 
+> Make sure that you know what you are doing before proceeding. Granting admin privileges to Dashboard's Service Account might be a security risk.
