Document front_controller_active in config.sample.php

[MorrisJobke]

From #8269 (comment)

@DeepDiver1975 I checked the sample file on my 7.0.3 installation and https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/config/config.sample.php in the repo. I couldn't find any reference to index.php.

Looks like the config flag is not documented - sorry for this. The config setting is named 'front_controller_active' and it should be set to true.

Also it would be interested to know which rewrite rule needs to get used to get this working.

I could only make this work currently in case an alternative web root is used - like #9589 ...

... maybe there is some magic with web server other then apache to make this work ... no clue
