[request] Fix conflicting info on fs scopes

[NectoT]

Question you want answered

How do I allow to access a file?

Where did you look for an answer?

I was reading a page about File System plugin in the Guides section, where I got to the "Security" section. The section pointed me to fs javascript reference, where an example of adding allowed scopes looks like this:

{
  "plugins": {
    "fs": {
      "scope": ["$APPDATA/databases/*"]
    }
  }
}

Note that there was no indication of which file to add this snippet to.

I unsuccessfully tried inserting this snippet into tauri.conf.json, after which I had to google the right way. It turned out that at the very bottom of the File System guide page there is a section about permissions, which did specify which file to tweak and does seem to work.

So, as I understand it, the snippet in the fs reference page is plain wrong
