Clarify that path_match also considers object fields. (#41658)
The `path_match` and `path_unmatch` parameters in dynamic templates match on object fields in addition to leaf fields. This is not obvious and can cause surprising errors when a template is meant for a leaf field, but there are object fields that match. This PR adds a note to the docs to describe the current behavior.

Note that the `path_match` and `path_unmatch` parameters match on object paths
|
||||
in addition to leaf fields. As an example, indexing the following document will
|
||||
result in an error because the `path_match` setting also matches the object
|
||||
field `name.title`, which can't be mapped as text:
