doc: update DataDirectoryGroupReadable 1 in tor.md
Move DataDirectoryGroupReadable 1 up a few lines to more clearly communicate that it is required for the filesystem group to read the DataDirectory. Per the Tor documentation https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/tor-manual.html.en#DataDirectoryGroupReadable "If this option is set to 0, don’t allow the filesystem group to read the DataDirectory. If the option is set to 1, make the DataDirectory readable by the default GID. (Default: 0)"
