    Docs: avoid confusing use of the word "synchronized"
    
    It's misleading to call the data directory the "synchronized data
    directory" when discussing a crash scenario when using pg_rewind's
    --no-sync option.  Here we just remove the word "synchronized" to avoid
    any possible confusion.
