docs: Adapt wal_segment_size docs to fc49e24.

anarazel · anarazel · commit 5fc1670bad9b · 2018-11-09T19:27:24.000-08:00
Before this change the docs weren't adapted to the fact that wal_segment_size is now measured in bytes, rather than multiples of wal_block_size. Author: David Steele Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/68ea97d6-2ed9-f339-e57d-ab3a33caf3b1@pgmasters.net Backpatch: 11-, like fc49e24 itself.
