docs: sed -i breaks hot reload
sed -i renames a new file over the old one, and quickshell's watch on the
old file dies with it. The autostart glyph fix went in that way and the
running shell never reloaded: the log showed no reload after the edit, and
a content change to shell.qml brought the glyph up.
