Doc: update remaining tables of functions/operators for new layout. 

This converts the contrib documentation to the new style, and mops up
a couple of function tables that were outside chapter 9 in the main
docs.

A few contrib modules choose not to present their functions in the
standard tabular format.  There might be room to rethink those decisions
now that the standard format is more friendly to verbose descriptions.
But I have not undertaken to do that here; I just converted existing
tables.

The scalar ordering operators (<literal>&lt;</literal>, <literal>&gt;=</literal>, etc)
do not make a lot of sense for any practical purpose but sorting. These
In addition to the above operators, the usual comparison
operators shown in <xref linkend="functions-comparison-op-table"/> are
available for type <type>cube</type>. These
operators first compare the first coordinates, and if those are equal,
compare the second coordinates, etc. They exist mainly to support the

Otherwise, this ordering is not of much practical use.

0 is used as the initial value for the extra coordinates.

dimensions. If the radius is negative the cube is shrunk instead.
All defined dimensions are changed by the
radius <parameter>r</parameter>. Lower-left coordinates are decreased
by <parameter>r</parameter> and upper-right coordinates are increased
by <parameter>r</parameter>. If a lower-left coordinate is increased
to more than the corresponding upper-right coordinate (this can only
happen when <parameter>r</parameter> &lt; 0) than both coordinates are
set to their average. If <parameter>n</parameter> is greater than the
number of defined dimensions and the cube is being enlarged
(<parameter>r</parameter> &gt; 0), then extra dimensions are added to
make <parameter>n</parameter> altogether; 0 is used as the initial
value for the extra coordinates. This function is useful for creating
bounding boxes around a point for searching for nearby points.

In addition to the above operators, the usual comparison
operators shown in <xref linkend="functions-comparison-op-table"/> are
available for type <type>seg</type>. These operators
first compare (a) to (c),
and if these are equal, compare (b) to (d). That results in
reasonably good sorting in most cases, which is useful if
you want to use ORDER BY with this type.

Parses the given document and returns true if the
document is well-formed XML. (Note: this is an alias for the standard
PostgreSQL function <function>xml_is_well_formed()</function>. The
name <function>xml_valid()</function> is technically incorrect since validity
and well-formedness have different meanings in XML.)
