doc: Fix descriptions of some PGC_POSTMASTER parameters.
The following parameters can only be set at server start because their context is PGC_POSTMASTER, but this information was missing or incorrectly documented. This commit adds or corrects that information for the following parameters: * debug_io_direct * dynamic_shared_memory_type * event_source * huge_pages * io_max_combine_limit * max_notify_queue_pages * shared_memory_type * track_commit_timestamp * wal_decode_buffer_size Backpatched to all supported branches.
