It was moved in this commit:

	commit afc4a78a30
	Author: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us>
	Date:   Mon Dec 3 11:40:49 2018 -0500
	
	    Refactor documentation about privileges to centralize the info.
	
	    Expand section 5.6 "Privileges" to include the full definition of
	    each privilege type, and an explanation of aclitem privilege displays,
	    along with some helpful summary tables.  Most of this material came
	    out of the GRANT reference page, although some of it is new.
	    Adjust a bunch of links that were pointing to GRANT to point to 5.6.

to a more appropriate place in the documentation:
