Doc: Fix misleading statement about VACUUM memory limits
In ec34040af I added a mention that there was no point in setting
maintenance_work_limit to anything higher than 1GB for vacuum, but that
was incorrect as ginInsertCleanup() also looks at what
maintenance_work_mem is set to during VACUUM and that's not limited to
1GB.
Here I attempt to make it more clear that the limitation is only around
the number of dead tuple identifiers that we can collect during VACUUM.
I've also added a note to autovacuum_work_mem to mention this limitation.
I didn't do that in ec34040af as I'd had some wrong-headed ideas about
just limiting the maximum value for that GUC to 1GB.
