      Document the cases (qwindowcapture-limitations.docinc).

      1. The captured window is partially outside the screen
      2. The whole captured window is outside the screen (not supported, an error is emitted)

      The documentation should consider the recent patch https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtmultimedia/+/686774

      See also qscreencapture-limitations as a doc layout example
