Spellcheck: s/descendent/descendant/g

Browse Source 
I got a little annoyed by reading documentation paragraphs containing
both spellings within a few lines of each other.  My dictionary says
"descendant" is the preferred spelling, and it's certainly the majority
usage in our tree, so standardize on that.

For one usage in parallel.sgml, I thought it better to rewrite to avoid
the term altogether.

Instead of writing <literal>ONLY</> before the table name, you can write
<literal>*</> after the table name to explicitly specify that descendant
tables are included. There is no real reason to use this syntax any more,
because searching descendent tables is now always the default behavior.

However, it is supported for compatibility with older releases.
