Add documentation for the JIT feature.

As promised in earlier commits, this adds documentation about the new
build options, the new GUCs, about the planner logic when JIT is used,
and the benefits of JIT in general.

Also adds a more implementation oriented README.

I'm sure we're going to want to expand this further, but I think this
is a reasonable start.
