tempdirectory (and maybe more in config.php defined folders) should be excluded from the check of extra files

When updating Nextcloud:
Check for expected files
The following extra files have been found:
tmp
This folder is defined via 'tempdirectory' => '/www/htdocs/cloud/tmp',

Describe the solution you'd like

While upgrading to 15.0.7 i ran in that issue as well. The updater pre-check stopped because of the unexpected extra folder 'tmp'.
Removing that folder helped executing the upgrade.

After having finished the upgrade the missing tmp folder was reported in the logging ;)

As a workaround I moved the tmp folder outside the nextcloud installation folder. This message should never come again ;)

Hey,
sounds like a possible workaround while i still think the problem should be properly solved ;)

I don't agree with you. If you put the tmp directory inside document root it's reachable from the web (sure you can deny access to it) but the right way is to put it outside the document root.

cc @MorrisJobke sounds like a nice feature but demand ...

The tempdirectory parameter is only mentioned in two places in the Admin Manual. I think we should just cover this in the docs with a note that if you customize this parameter, it shouldn't be located in the NC install directory. This documents best practice. If people still want to do it, that's on them. :-)
