Michael Eischer adbd4a1d18 Fully rework docs for group-accessible repositories
Just tell the user what to do instead of explaining too many details.
I've dropped the read-only variant as it actually has no representation
in the local and sftp backends. Instead it relied on both backends
initially creating all directories, which can't actually be guaranteed.

Based on a suggestion by @brad2014 in significant parts.

Michael Eischer 06aa0f08cb docs: fix permission setup for group-accessible repo
The group always needs execute access for the directories. In addition,
files should be always set to read-only for everyone as restic never
modifies files.

Michael Eischer 9649a9c62b doc: use regional urls for Amazon S3 and add generic s3 provider section
Split description for non-Amazon S3 providers into separate section. The
section now also includes the `s3.bucket-lookup` extended option. Switch
to using regional URLs for Amazon S3 to replace the need for setting the
region.

Michael Manganiello 41f70f1f4f backend/sftp: Add sftp.args option
Allow setting custom arguments for the `sftp` backend, by using the
`sftp.args` option. This is similar to the approach already implemented
in the `rclone` backend, to support new arguments without requiring
future code changes for each different SSH argument.

Closes #4241

greatroar a7ac9a4769 doc: Fix some links, focus less on implementation details
The godoc for filepath.Match has the syntax, which is what is important
for writing patterns. Use pkg.go.dev instead of golang.org/pkg.

For #4245. Not all links fixed yet.
