Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

There is a settings for the regular expression for text paragraph navigation in the GUI of NVDA which users might accidentally change, breaking the functionality of the feature of text paragraph navigation.
This can lead to confusions and is not very obvious that users could have changed it when investigating issues.
The regular expression looks as follows:
((?<=\w)(?<!\d)["”»)]?[.…]{1,3}["”»)]?([\d+])*(?=[\r\n  ]|$)|[?!]|[.!?:;])

Describe the solution you'd like

Remove this from the GUI and document it properly in the developers guide, in order to minimize the risk that someone changes it accidentally.

Describe alternatives you've considered
