Improve BRIN documentation somewhat

This removes some info about support procedures being used, which was
obsoleted by commit db5f98a, as well as add some more documentation
on how to create new opclasses using the Minmax infrastructure.
(Hopefully we can get something similar for Inclusion as well.)

In passing, fix some obsolete mentions of "mmtuples" in source code
comments.

Backpatch to 9.5, where BRIN was introduced.

-  To implement these methods in a generic way, the operator class
-  defines its own internal support functions.
-  (For instance, the <quote>min/max</> operator classes implement
-  support functions for the four inequality operators for their data type.)
-  Additionally, the operator class must supply appropriate
-  operator entries,
-  to enable the optimizer to use the index when those operators are
-  used in queries.
+  The core distribution includes support for two types of operator classes:
+  minmax and inclusion.  Operator class definitions using them are shipped for
+  in-core data types as appropriate.  Additional operator classes can be
+  defined by the user for other datatypes using equivalent definitions,
+  without having to write any source code; appropriate catalog entries being
+  declared is enough.  Note that assumptions about the semantics of operator
+  strategies are embedded in the support procedures's source code.

+ <para>
+  Operator classes that implement completely different semantics are also

+  described above are written.  Note that backwards compatibility across major
+  releases is not guaranteed: for example, additional support procedures might

+  To write an operator class for a datatype that implements a totally

+  All operator class members (procedures and operators) are mandatory.
