Docs: improve CREATE TABLE ref page's discussion of partition bounds.

Docs: improve CREATE TABLE ref page's discussion of partition bounds. Clarify in the syntax synopsis that partition bound values must be exactly numeric literals or string literals; previously it said "bound_literal" which was defined nowhere. Replace confusing --- and, I think, incorrect in detail --- definition of how range bounds work with a reference to row-wise comparison plus a concrete example (which I stole from Robert Haas). Minor copy-editing in the same area. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/30475.1496005465@sss.pgh.pa.us Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/28106.1496041449@sss.pgh.pa.us
