Docs: consolidate dependency notes in pg_dump and pg_restore
The pg_dump documentation had repetitive notes for the --schema,
--table, and --extension switches, noting that dependent database
objects are not automatically included in the dump. This commit removes
these notes and replaces them with a consolidated paragraph in the
"Notes" section.
pg_restore had a similar note for -t but lacked one for -n; do likewise.
Also, add a note to --extension in pg_dump to note that ancillary files
(such as shared libraries and control files) are not included in the
dump and must be present on the destination system.
