Michael Paquier 1372166bac doc: Add more details about pg_stat_get_xact_blocks_{fetched,hit}
The explanation describing the dependency to system read() calls for
these two functions has been removed in ddfc2d9.  And after more
discussion about d69c404, we have concluded that adding more details
makes them easier to understand.

While on it, use the term "block read requests" (maybe found in cache)
rather than "buffers fetched" and "buffer hits".

Per discussion with Melanie Plageman, Kyotaro Horiguchi, Bertrand
Drouvot and myself.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
