docs(config): mark target_fps legacy; describe what Vegas scroll_delay does

Browse Source 
- General tab "Scroll Frame Rate" (target_fps) is labelled legacy: after
  the sports_scroll fix nothing in core scrolling reads it. The field and
  its API validation stay so saved configs and plugins that read
  global_config['target_fps'] keep working. CONFIG_REFERENCE says the same.
- Vegas frame_based_scrolling/scroll_delay were described as frame-count
  stepping at ~50 FPS. Neither steps nor sets a frame rate: frame-based
  mode converts the speed to px per scroll_delay, clamps it to 0.1-5, and
  still advances by elapsed time, so the applied speed is
  clamp(scroll_speed * scroll_delay, 0.1, 5) / scroll_delay px/s. The
  config comments, render_pipeline comment and CONFIG_REFERENCE rows now
  say so. No behaviour change.
