Cool, I've attached a patch to do this. I left a few of the GUCs under
Resource Consumption (like autovacuum_work_mem and
vacuum_buffer_usage_limit) where they are because it seemed
appropriate.

This is my first docs patch that introduces new sections and such, so
I'm not sure I got the indentation 100% correct (I, of course, tried
to follow conventions).
