UISlider Documentation Misleading

Summary: 
The UISlider documentation goes into great detail about subclassing and customizing the general appearance of a slider. It talks about changing the minimum and maximum track images. When those images are changed, however, you need to explicitly set a thumb image. The documentation fails to mention this and is misleading. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.) Open the documentation browser.
2.) Navigate to the UISlider documentation.
3.) Read the "Customizing the Slider’s Appearance" section.

Expected Results:
I expect the documentation to inform the developer that when using the setMinimumTrackImage:forState: and setMaximumTrackImage:forState: messages that they need to explicitly set the thumb image.

Actual Results:
There is no documentation informing the user to set the thumb image.

Regression:
Not applicable.

Notes:
None.
