Here is a patch set that cleans up the catalog docs for pg_period. The
columns have changed since that was written, and also we use a
different sgml structure on those pages now. Note pg_period still
contains a couple essentially-unused columns, perislocal and
perinhcount. Those are intended for supporting table inheritance, so
I've left them in.
