Core Rule Set: ls -la passes in q on a gitea user's or organisation's page (closes #349)

On a path of one segment, q now skips 932250 too, unless the path ends
in a server-side script's extension, such as .php or .cgi. The searches
on a user's and an organisation's page are recorded from gitea 1.27.3
and Forgejo 17.0.1.

         A user's or an organisation's page has a path of one segment, such as
         `/alice`. So on any app, `q` skips these rules on every path of one
-        segment, such as `/search`. But it skips 932250 only on a path made of
-        the characters a name may hold: letters, digits, `-`, `_` and dots, the
-        first a letter or digit. So `ls -la` is refused on
-        `/login.jsp;jsessionid=abc`. `q` also keeps 932250 on a path that ends
-        in a server-side script's extension, such as `/index.php`. The
-        extensions are these, in upper or lower case:

+        server-side script's extension, such as `/index.php`, so `ls -la` is

         - `.php`;
         - `.phtml`;
         - `.php5`;
