doc: Remove reference to pre-8.2 pg_dump behaviour

Browse Source 
The behavioural change in the -t/--table option happened around 15 years
ago and there seems little point in keeping it around.

The behavior of the <option>-t</option> switch is not entirely upward
compatible with pre-8.2 <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
versions. Formerly, writing <literal>-t tab</literal> would dump all
tables named <literal>tab</literal>, but now it just dumps whichever one
is visible in your default search path. To get the old behavior
you can write <literal>-t '*.tab'</literal>. Also, you must write something
like <literal>-t sch.tab</literal> to select a table in a particular schema,
rather than the old locution of <literal>-n sch -t tab</literal>.
