Improve WAL reliability documentation, and add more cross-references to it.

In particular, we are now more explicit about the fact that you may need
wal_sync_method=fsync_writethrough for crash-safety on some platforms,
including MaxOS X.  There's also now an explicit caution against assuming
that the default setting of wal_sync_method is either crash-safe or best
for performance.
