Explain how rule groups combine, where to configure them, and how folder and collaborative tag conditions work. Document MIME type and file size check limitations, public-link group membership behavior, request-based conditions, and enforcement boundaries. Clarify that denied files and metadata may remain visible. Tidy up wording throughout and add cross-references to related documentation. Audited against the implementation. The file-size description assumes nextcloud/server#66509 is merged as proposed. Assisted-by: Copilot:gpt-6.1-terra Signed-off-by: Josh <josh.t.richards@gmail.com>

☑️ Resolves
Changes:
Audited against the implementation. Minor since existing behavior is already buggy: The file-size description assumes nextcloud/server#66509 is merged as proposed.
Follow-up: The existing screenshots, as with many throughout the docs, remain unchanged and still need updating.
