Clarify docs about database parameter in streaming replication primary_conninfo.

Docs were unclear on whether or not database=replication was required,
nor did they mention the FATAL error this causes if database parameter is
mentioned explicitly, whatever its value.

You do not need to specify <literal>database=replication</> in the
<varname>primary_conninfo</varname>. The required option will be added
automatically. If you mention the database parameter at all within
<varname>primary_conninfo</varname> then a FATAL error will be raised.
