    Clarify documentation of RESET ROLE · 174edbe9
    Joe Conway authored
    Command-line options, or previous "ALTER (ROLE|DATABASE) ...
    SET ROLE ..." commands, can change the value of the default role
    for a session. In the presence of one of these, RESET ROLE will
    change the current user identifier to the default role rather
    than the session user identifier. Fix the documentation to
    reflect this reality. Backpatch to all supported versions.
