docs: update the ROOT documentation and error messages (#19832)

* docs: update the ROOT documentation and error messages

* The documentation now reflects what happens in the
  setting/repository.go::newRepository function:
  filepath.Join(AppWorkPath, RepoRootPath) was missing.

* The error message displayed when RepoRootPath is not found now
  displays the value of RepoRootPath. Given the complexity of the
  construction of this value, only referring to it in the abstract
  is likely to be misleading to the Gitea admin trying to interpret
  the message.
