This updates the text to match what we decided in solid#105 (comment). At the time we decided not to update the spec text, but now that the spec text is more detailed, the current statement is not correctly conveying that access to both the containing folder and the non-existing resource URL is required. See the confusion that was created by this in solid-contrib/web-access-control-tests#56 which was an (I think incorrect) reaction to solid#122.

ACL permission requirements are hard to follow even if you spell them out completely, and in this spec text we try to speak in generic terms about them, and only mention the aspects that are worth noting, and that makes it even harder.
I might be getting this wrong because it's all so complex, but here's what I think now after reading the recent comments:
It seems #122 created some confusion.
This updates the text to match what we decided in response to a similar but unrelated confusion.
At the time we decided not to update the spec text, but now that the spec text is more detailed, the current statement is not correctly conveying that access to both the containing folder and the non-existing resource URL is required.
