Expand help text for file directory short names to detail special names

Copy/pasted (with little modification) from
https://synchro.net/docs/file_section.html#AdvancedOptions -> "Short Name:"

Some short names have specially predefined meaning and it's important to
include that detail here.

" If you wish `all` uploads to automatically go into one specific\n"

" to be able to see the files in this directory or download them\n"
" until they are moved by the sysop, set the required access\n"
" for your 'Uploads' directory to level 90 or higher. Creating\n"
" an 'Uploads' directory also allows 'Blind' batch uploads from\n"
" the users (files need not be added to the upload queue first).\n"
