Simplify the example of VACUUM in documentation.

MasaoFujii · MasaoFujii · commit fa0d1fd8955c · 2017-03-31T01:36:26.000+09:00
Previously a detailed activity report by VACUUM VERBOSE ANALYZE was described as an example of VACUUM in docs. But it had been obsolete for a long time. For example, commit feb4f44 updated the content of that activity report in 2003, but we had forgotten to update the example. So basically we need to update the example. But since no one cared about the details of VACUUM output and complained about that mistake for such long time, per discussion on hackers, we decided to get rid of the detailed activity report from the example and simplify it. Back-patch to all supported versions. Reported by Masahiko Sawada, patch by me. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAD21AoAGA2pB3p-CWmTkxBsbkZS1bcDGBLcYVcvcDxspG_XAfA@mail.gmail.com
