doc: Clarify unit of logging for log_temp_files

danielgustafsson · danielgustafsson · commit 1f059a440864 · 2022-11-28T11:10:01.000+01:00
When the unit is omitted from log_temp_files the value is taken as kb, but the logged value is also without unit but specified in bytes. This could cause some confusion, so clarify in the documentation which unit is used when logging.
