Meh. power() is the SQL-standard spelling; I don't see a good reason to
encourage people to use the legacy name. We might hope to get rid of
that name someday (cf commit fc7fd5018).

We intentionally do *not* document functions that are only meant to be
used as infrastructure for operators and aggregates. If we did, the
tables would be far larger and would just encourage people to use
functions we'd prefer they didn't. As with the pow() case, this'd
basically be enlarging our exposed surface of frozen API, and I don't
think that's desirable.
