Add application setting developer documentation

Andy Schoenen requested to merge add-application-settings-developer-documentation into master

What does this MR do and why?

Whenever I wanted to add an application setting, I looked up some MR that did it before and go through all the files that need to change.

Reviewing MRs that add application settings, I sometimes found that the API documentation wasn't updated or a validation or default value was missing.

I think it would be helpful to provide some more guidance for developers about application settings.
