Fix the example plugin paths (#52881)

Browse source 
Based on https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/config.html
the default callback paths do not contain `_plugin`. Thus `~/.ansible/plugins/callback_plugins` and `/usr/share/ansible/plugins/plugin_type/action_plugins` are incorrect. Verified on 2.7.5 that by default `plugins/action` works and `plugins/action_plugins` does not.

@ -75,8 +75,8 @@ Ansible loads plugins automatically too, loading each type of plugin separately
You can create or add a local plugin in any of these locations:
* any directory added to the relevant ``ANSIBLE_plugin_type_PLUGINS`` environment variable (these variables, such as ``$ANSIBLE_INVENTORY_PLUGINS`` and ``$ANSIBLE_VARS_PLUGINS`` take colon-separated lists like ``$PATH``)
* the directory named for the correct ``plugin_type`` within ``~/.ansible/plugins/`` - for example, ``~/.ansible/plugins/callback_plugins``
* the directory named for the correct ``plugin_type`` within ``/usr/share/ansible/plugins/`` - for example, ``/usr/share/ansible/plugins/plugin_type/action_plugins``
* the directory named for the correct ``plugin_type`` within ``~/.ansible/plugins/`` - for example, ``~/.ansible/plugins/callback``
* the directory named for the correct ``plugin_type`` within ``/usr/share/ansible/plugins/`` - for example, ``/usr/share/ansible/plugins/action``
Once your plugin file is in one of these locations, Ansible will load it and you can use it in a any local module, task, playbook, or role.
