Description:

Hello.

This page missed information about supported clientname=CN/DN option and
describes only `map` option.
Also `clientcert` is described not in format. I expect it was documented
under `map` as next list item of supported options


The description for pg_hba.conf auth-options covers this.  Since those two options do not only apply to cert but any hostssl entry it was chosen to document the ssl related options on the pg_hba.conf page.  I do see value in pointing the reader back to that location from the cert page though.  Or maybe move the wording to the cert page and replace the content in pg_hba.conf with a link to there.  Leaning toward the later ATM.
