Doc: clarify that DROP ... CASCADE is recursive.

Apparently that's not obvious to everybody, so let's belabor the point.

In passing, document that DROP POLICY has CASCADE/RESTRICT options (which
it does, per gram.y) but they do nothing (I assume, anyway).  Also update
some long-obsolete commentary in gram.y.
