Closes #6160

Clarifies a bit better the default value of false of enable-webhook at code level in ECK, while at the same time our default installation enables it by default.

can we remove "default" later in this sentence? we might rephrase to say "if you're editing x y z / installed using x y z methods, the setting is already present and set to true"

I think a think that makes this confusing is we call this manual configuration but likely it's being applied in a layer over one of these defaults. we also say "If you installed ECK without the webhook" but what is the context that makes this possible?

consider putting this default mismatch info directly in the description rather than as a note below the table
