Thread: doc improv: backup/restore

This patch improves the backup & restore documentation somewhat: I added
a few more cross-refs, documented increasing checkpoint_segments, and
made a few other minor improvements.

I intend to apply this within 24 hours barring any complaints.

I'm not sure, but seems the reference to work_mem is gone?

Not sure what you mean; neither the old version of the docs nor the new
version mentioned work_mem, they mention "maintenance_work_mem", and the
patch doesn't change that. I also replaced a solitary tip to increase
maintenance_work_mem in the Backup & Restore chapter with an xref to the
full documentation on improving bulk loading performance, which covers
the topic more fully.
