Document deprecated --wal-directory option for pg_verifybackup Commit b3cf461b3cf renamed --wal-directory to --wal-path but retained the former as a silent alias. Per project policy, all options, including deprecated ones, should be documented to assist users transitioning between versions. This patch restores --wal-directory to the documentation and --help output.
