Tom Lane 6d776522d2 Document changes in large-object privilege checking. ...

Commit 5ecc0d738 removed the hard-wired superuser checks in lo_import
and lo_export in favor of protecting them with SQL permissions, but
failed to adjust the documentation to match.  Fix that, and add a
<caution> paragraph pointing out the nontrivial security hazards
involved with actually granting such permissions.  (It's still better
than ALLOW_DANGEROUS_LO_FUNCTIONS, though.)

Also, commit ae20b23a9 caused large object read/write privilege to
be checked during lo_open() rather than in the actual read or write
calls.  Document that.
