Subject: [PATCH v2] doc: Clarify synchronous_standby_names parameter.

The synchronous_standby_names GUC allows specifying num_sync,
the number of synchronous standbys transactions must wait for
replies from. This value must be an integer greater than zero.
This commit updates the documentation to clarify this requirement.
