doc: Fix data_checksums data type

Commit f19c0eccae96 changed the data_checksums GUC datatype from a
boolean to an enum.  This updates the documentation to accurately
reflect its new type and document the new possible states: 'on',
'off', 'inprogress-on', and 'inprogress-off'.

Also update the xref for more information to point to the section
on data checksums rather than the initdb checksum option.
