Agreed that mentioning the --name variant is useful.  I'm not really
on board with having one option refer to the other on the pages where
both are described, like on --help or the doc page for "postgres".

For now, I've applied a patch for the libpq.sgml and config.sgml bits
which are improvements of their own.
