Misleading "transaction" description

[larsqa]

Core or SDK?

Platform/SDK

Which part? Which one?

JavaScript related SDK

Description

The Event Payload Optional Attributes states:

The name of the transaction which caused this exception.

However, event.transaction not only exists during exceptions, but also transactions (e.g. beforeSendTransaction(event) hook.

Suggested Solution

Update statement to be more specific, what the transaction key is, how the value is generated and that it's not exclusive to exceptions.
