Describe the bug

Hello, given I can't find a repo with the documentation to do a PR directly, I may as well point out minor typos I found when reading the docs.

Zenoh applications in peer mode forward all local applications and router they already discovered to newly scouted applications.

router -> routers

they already discovered -> they have already discovered

The key space of Zenoh dedicate to administer a Zenoh router and its plugins. It is accessible via regular get/put on Zenoh,

dedicate -> dedicated

administer -> administering

get/put -> GET/PUT (to follow the rest of the docs)

Then you can change elements of it’s configuration once it’s started, by sending put messages to its admin space.

put -> PUT

Note that while you may attempt to change any part of the configuration through this mean, not all of its properties are actually watched.
For example, while the storage plugin watches for any change in its configuration and will attempt to act on it, the REST plugin will only log a warning that it observed a change, but won’t apply it.
Changes to non-plugin parts of the configuration may be registered by the configuration, but not acted upon, such as the mode field of the configuration which is only ever read at startup.

Not really a typo, but I found this explanation pretty confusing. Maybe a list or diagram of "Watched properties and how they are acted upon changes" would help.

TODO: this part hasn’t been redocumented yet. Feel free to contact us on Discord to get more information.

Well, it's a TODO, just thought I'd bring it up.

[1] Off-topic: In https://zenoh.io/docs/getting-started/troubleshooting/ it says that: "Error treating timestamp for received Data" may appear if there is a discrepancy in between clocks of 100ms. When teaching ROS to students, specially in environments without access to the internet, just a local network, drifts in the clock were a relatively common issue. By using messages without a timestamp, we could overcome teaching the basics ignoring these kind of problems. Is there a way to ignore timestamps in zenoh? Or tune the discrepancy?

To reproduce

Open the docs, read them.
