docs: in_tail: fix boolean defaults and remove duplicate table

[eschabell]

• Standardize boolean defaults to use true/false instead of on/off:
  • file_cache_advise: on -> true
  • skip_empty_lines: off -> false
  • skip_long_lines: off -> false
• Remove duplicate Docker mode configuration table that repeated parameters already documented in the main configuration table
• Replace duplicate table with reference to main configuration section

Fixes #361
