Script templates path list incomplete in the documentation #8355

Description

Your Godot version:
v4.1.2.stable.official [399c9dc39]

Issue description:
The documentation page states the path for script templates on Windows is:
%APPDATA%\Godot\script_templates\

I've installed Godot from Steam, and the path for script templates are here at least for me on Windows 11:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Godot Engine\editor_data\script_templates

I found this using the following menu item in the Godot editor:
Editor -> Open Editor Data/Settings Folder

I think it would be better if there was a note in the docs about the path being different if the editor is installed from Steam,
or include the path in the list (if it is always the same relative to the steamapps folder),
or add a note about the Open Editor Data/Settings Folder feature (if it always leads there on other platforms too).

URL to the documentation page (if already existing):
