Requested Feature

You should clarify in your documentation, that you can supply a GroupName as a SceneName.

The sourcecode points this out already: https://github.com/obsproject/obs-websocket/blob/265899f76f88a5be74747308fff3d35347ce43c5/src/requesthandler/RequestHandler_SceneItems.cpp#L89

But in the description of the variable "sceneName" there is no reference to groups. https://github.com/obsproject/obs-websocket/blob/master/docs/generated/protocol.md#setsceneitemenabled

This would help clarifying potential misconceptions about how to handle SceneItems that are within a group.

Requested Feature Usage Scenario

Clarified handling of requests that concern Items within Groups.

The documentation of these requests literally says Groups only, Scenes only, or Scenes and Groups

I know that it refences that in the main description, but its not clear that the parameter "sceneName" then should be used for the Group name. I think it wouldn't hurt to add it to the variable description. And since the soourcecode documentation does in fact mention it on parameter level it propably isn't too far fetched to mention it.
