Clarify documentation of RESET ROLE

Command-line options, or previous "ALTER (ROLE|DATABASE) ...
SET ROLE ..." commands, can change the value of the default role
for a session. In the presence of one of these, RESET ROLE will
change the current user identifier to the default role rather
than the session user identifier. Fix the documentation to
reflect this reality. Backpatch to all supported versions.
