First rough cut at text search documentation: bare bones reference

pages for the new SQL commands.  I also committed Bruce's text search
introductory chapter, as-is except for fixing some markup errors,
so that there would be a place for the reference pages to link to.

<title>Description</title>
<para>
<command>ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION</command> changes the definition of
a text search configuration. You can change which parser it uses, modify
its mapping from token types to dictionaries,
or change the configuration's name or owner.
</para>
<para>
You must be the owner of the configuration to use
<command>ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION</>.

<listitem>
<para>
The name of a text search dictionary to be consulted for the
specified token type(s). If multiple dictionaries are listed,
they are consulted in the specified order.

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable class="parameter">newname</replaceable></term>
<listitem>

<listitem>
<para>
The new owner of the text search configuration.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>
The <literal>ADD MAPPING FOR</> form installs a list of dictionaries to be
consulted for the specified token type(s); it is an error if there is
already a mapping for any of the token types.
The <literal>ALTER MAPPING FOR</> form does the same, but first removing
any existing mapping for those token types.
The <literal>ALTER MAPPING REPLACE</> forms substitute <replaceable
class="parameter">new_dictionary</replaceable> for <replaceable
class="parameter">old_dictionary</replaceable> anywhere the latter appears.
This is done for only the specified token types when <literal>FOR</>
appears, or for all mappings of the configuration when it doesn't.
The <literal>DROP MAPPING</> form removes all dictionaries for the
specified token type(s), causing tokens of those types to be ignored
by the text search configuration. It is an error if there is no mapping
for the token types, unless <literal>IF EXISTS</> appears.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Notes</title>
<para>
While changing the text search parser used by a configuration is allowed,
this will only work nicely if old and new parsers use the same set of
token types. It is advisable to drop the mappings for any incompatible
token types before changing parsers.
</para>

<title>Examples</title>
<para>
The following example replaces the <literal>english</> dictionary
with the <literal>swedish</> dictionary anywhere that <literal>english</>
is used within <literal>my_config</>.
</para>

ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION my_config
ALTER MAPPING REPLACE english WITH swedish;
