Doc: warn that parallel pg_restore may fail if --no-schema was used.

If the archive file was made with --no-schema or related options
then it likely does not have enough dependency information to
ensure that parallel restore will choose a workable restore order.
Document this.

In passing, do some minor wordsmithing on new nearby text about
restoring from pg_dumpall archives.
