### User Goal

Document the behavior of `List of filesystems to ignore` following https://github.com/elastic/integrations/issues/7703

We should improve the documentation associated to the, in particular:

- Set the List of filesystems to ignore empty => Defaults to Metricbeat behavior (nodev in `/proc/filesystems`)
- Set the List of filesystems to ignore to a list of valid filesystems to ignore => It will collect all of them except the ones specified
- Set the List of filesystems to ignore to a single space => It will render as `filesystem.ignore_types: []` which means do not ignore any filesystem
