Description

### Checklist

- [x] I have fzf 0.54.0 or later
- [x] I have searched through the existing issues

### Output of `:echo system(fzf#exec() .. ' --version')`

0.60 (devel)

### OS

- [x] Linux
- [ ] macOS
- [ ] Windows
- [ ] Etc.

### Problem / Steps to reproduce

Rg: seems to operate on filenames as well (and not just the contents of the files), in contrast to RG: which operates as expected. Is this intended? If yes, can you document it more clearly?

Research direction

Start by comparing the Vim commands `Rg:` and `RG:` in the fzf.vim documentation and entry points, using the reported fzf 0.60 development version on Linux. Confirm whether `Rg:` searches filenames as well as file contents; done means the behavior is clarified, then either documented clearly or tracked as a confirmed bug.
