Clean up the user directory sample config section (#9385)

The user directory sample config section was a little messy, and didn't adhere to our [recommended config format guidelines](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/blob/develop/docs/code_style.md#configuration-file-format).

This PR cleans that up a bit.
