Commit547d90aallowed `BUILD_DIR` to be defined from the CLI but didn't update usages of `HTML_BUILD_DIR`. When building the documentation for multiple versions and/or languages, we should rely on `HTML_BUILD_DIR` to point to the appropriate directory. closes odoo/documentation#1078 X-original-commit:9bad0540b0Signed-off-by: Antoine Vandevenne (anv) <AntoineVDV@users.noreply.github.com>
