doc: Document overflow handling of pg_class.relpages etc.

The pg_class fields relpages, relallvisible, and relallfrozen are
stored as int32 in the catalog but block numbers are internally of
type uint32.  This all works correctly because the values are
implicitly converted back and forth according to C conversion rules.
But this was apparently never explicitly documented, so add this.
