  1. doc: a small improvement about pg_am description

    Hi,
    
    When reading the documentation about operator class, I found
    the following description:
    
     The pg_am table contains one row for every index access method. 
     Support for access to regular tables is built into PostgreSQL, 
     but all index access methods are described in pg_am.
    
    It seems to me that this description says pg_am contains only
    index access methods but not table methods. I wonder it is missed
    to fix this when tableam was supported and other documentation
    was changed in b73c3a11963c8bb783993cfffabb09f558f86e37.
    
    Attached is a patch to remove the sentence that starts with
    "Support for access to regular tables is ....".
    
    Ragards,
    Yugo Nagata

    Thank you for the report.
    
    That section should not refer to pg_am directly now that there's CREATE
    ACCESS METHOD. I committed a fix for that which also fixes the problem
    you describe.
