    Fix documentation for the privileges required for replication functions.
    
    Previously it's documented that use of replication functions is
    restricted to superusers. This is true for the functions which
    use replication origin, but not for pg_logicl_emit_message() and
    functions which use replication slot. For example, not only
    superusers but also users with REPLICATION privilege is allowed
    to use the functions for replication slot. This commit fixes
    the documentation for the privileges required for those replication
    functions.
    
    Back-patch to 9.4 (all supported versions).
