doc: Add note about I/O timing information in EXPLAIN and pg_stat_database.

Explain that the followings are tracked only when track_io_timing GUC
is enabled.

- blk_read_time and blk_write_time in pg_stat_database
- time spent reading and writing data file blocks in EXPLAIN output
   with BUFFERS option

Whther track_io_timing is enabled affects also blk_read_time and
blk_write_time in pg_stat_statements, but which was already documented.
