Documentation about encodedCharacters is wrong

Welcome!

• [x] Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• [x] Yes, I've searched similar issues on the Traefik community forum and didn't find any.

What did you do?

1. I looked up the documentation for the encoded characters after migrating to v2.11.32: https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/v2.11/routing/entrypoints/#encoded-characters. The documentation states to use --entryPoints.web.encodedCharacters.allowEncodedHash=true to allow hashes.
2. I added --entryPoints.<my_entrypoint_name>.encodedCharacters.allowEncodedHash=true to my command.
3. The traefik logs showed that the configuration could not be build
4. I looked at the implemenation here checking the commit 4d7d627. This stated that the CLI option is --entryPoints.<my_entrypoint_name>.http.encodedCharacters.allowEncodedHash=true
5. Adding http resolved the problem.

What did you see instead?

The documentation should be aligned with the implementation.
