Document that Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf targets expand comma-separated applyTo values into proper YAML lists during compilation. Add an example showing multi-glob syntax. Clarify that brace alternations are not split. Follows fix in #1387 (fix(integration): respect comma-separated applyTo globs in Claude/Cursor/Windsurf).

Pull request overview
Updates the authoring documentation for instruction applyTo to reflect the recently merged behavior where comma-separated globs are expanded into YAML lists for the claude/cursor/windsurf targets, while the copilot target preserves the raw applyTo string.
Changes:
- Documented comma-separated
applyTomulti-glob behavior, including a concrete example. - Clarified that brace alternation patterns like
**/*.{css,scss}are treated as a single glob (not comma-split). - Updated the per-target compilation table to call out comma-expansion behavior explicitly.

Notes
PR #1446 is a Windows-only internal cache bug fix that requires no documentation changes.
PR #1387 is user-facing: it fixes
applyTomulti-glob handling for three targets and the behavior is now correctly reflected in the docs.Note
