doc: Granting TRIGGER or REFERENCES on table is dangerous.

It's always been the case that granting these privileges to users that
you don't fully trust was a bad idea, but it hasn't always been
obvious to people reading the documentation that this is the case.
To prevent confusion, and also repeated reports to pgsql-security,
mention it explicitly.
