Doc: declutter CREATE TABLE synopsis.

Factor out the "persistence mode" and storage/compression parts
of the syntax synopsis to reduce line lengths and increase
readability.  Also add an introductory para about the persistence
modes so that the Description section still lines up with the
synopsis.
