Capture current behavior where optional field is not yet supported.
When `optional=true` Cargo silently skip missing config-include files. Example config: ```toml [[include]] path = 'optional-config.toml' optional = true ```
Restructure config-include documentation: - Brief intro with examples - Added the "Documentation updates" subsection I am a bit not sure whether we should have standalone sections like `include.path` and `include.optional`, as we cannot really set `include.path = "config.toml"` directly. Or maybe `include[].path` is good for heading?
