Clarify that blocks need to be enabled in the configured_collectors argument. Add an example showing how this is done. Clean up text content to reduce Vale errors and align better with Grafana styles. Fix a type error (string vs bool).

Fixes https://github.com/grafana/support-escalations/issues/18939

Type changed from string to bool for enable_iis_worker_process. Verify this accurately reflects the actual API, as boolean is more appropriate for an enable/disable flag than string.
