Peter Eisentraut bb4eefe7bf doc: Improve DocBook XML validity
DocBook XML is superficially compatible with DocBook SGML but has a
slightly stricter DTD that we have been violating in a few cases.
Although XSLT doesn't care whether the document is valid, the style
sheets don't necessarily process invalid documents correctly, so we need
to work toward fixing this.

This first commit moves the indexterms in refentry elements to an
allowed position.  It has no impact on the output.

<title>Description</title>
<para>
<command>CREATE TEXT SEARCH PARSER</command> creates a new text search
parser. A text search parser defines a method for splitting a text
string into tokens and assigning types (categories) to the tokens.
A parser is not particularly useful by itself, but must be bound into a
text search configuration along with some text search dictionaries
to be used for searching.
</para>
<para>
If a schema name is given then the text search parser is created in the
specified schema. Otherwise it is created in the current schema.
</para>
<para>
You must be a superuser to use <command>CREATE TEXT SEARCH PARSER</command>.
(This restriction is made because an erroneous text search parser
definition could confuse or even crash the server.)

<para>
The name of the end function for the parser.

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable class="parameter">lextypes_function</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
The name of the lextypes function for the parser (a function that
returns information about the set of token types it produces).
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><replaceable class="parameter">headline_function</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>
The name of the headline function for the parser (a function that
summarizes a set of tokens).
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>
The function names can be schema-qualified if necessary. Argument types
are not given, since the argument list for each type of function is
predetermined. All except the headline function are required.
</para>
<para>
The arguments can appear in any order, not only the one shown above.
</para>
