fa84caebc7b647d9483262b6634bfe6b02b90a69 doc: added info to bitcoin.conf doc (Brian Liotti)
Pull request description:
Should probably be explicitly stated to not make modifications to the conf file while daemon is running. ref #11586
For example, if rpc credentials are modified while bitcoind is running, `bitcoin-cli stop` is unable to stop bitcoind until the original credentials are restored in `bitcoin.conf`

Pull request description:
This was a good addition to the docs, but the PR was closed. So I've cherry-picked the commit and fixed up Russ's comments as well as the linter issue.
