As introduced in 2258e76, the docs were hard to parse: - The examples used listed a lot of long records, bloating the output. These are switched to show less records with the expanded format, similarly to pageinspect. - The function descriptions listed all the OUT parameters, producing long lines. This is updated so as only the input parameters are documented, clarifying the whole. - Remove one example on pg_get_wal_stats() when per_record is set to true, which is not really necessary once we know the output produced, and the behavior of the parameter is documented. While on it, fix a few grammar mistakes and simplify a couple of sentences.
