Document the ability to specify TableAM for pgbench 

Upcoming custom Table Access Methods (TableAM) need benchmarking.  Despite
pgbench doesn't have an explicit option for TableAM specification, one can
specify it using PGOPTION environmental variable.  The present commit documents
this way to specify TableAM for pgbench.

You may specify the <link linkend="tableam">Table Access Method</link>
for the pgbench tables. The environment variable <envar>PGOPTIONS</envar>
specifies database configuration options that are passed to PostgreSQL via
the command line (See <xref linkend="config-setting-shell"/>).
For example, a hypothetical default Table Access Method for the tables that
pgbench creates called <literal>wuzza</literal> can be specified with:
<programlisting>
PGOPTIONS='-c default_table_access_method=wuzza'
</programlisting>
