New Feature / Enhancement Checklist

This is a tiny modification.

The following section in the documentation (https://docs.parseplatform.org/rest/guide/#deleting-files) isn't clear.
I lost almost 1 hour to understand how I must format the file's URL to send the DELETE request.
I found the solution in another GitHub issue (parse-community/parse-server#1765 (comment)) so I'm not the only one who lost time because of that.

Feature / Enhancement Description

The documentation can be improved quickly by adding a clear example to explain how to format the URL.

For example :

Although the file's URL is 'http:////YOUR.PARSE-SERVER.HERE/parse/files/appId/my_picture.png', you have to remove the '/appId' section from the URL to access the API endpoind.

So the URL must be : 'http:////YOUR.PARSE-SERVER.HERE/parse/files/my_picture.png'

Otherwise it will not work.
