no lo_import(text, oid) document

Hi,

I couldn't find lo_import(text, oid) document anywhere in the
PostgreSQL core documents. Unless I'm missing something, I would like
to add description for the function in "31.4. Server-Side Functions"
part.

BTW, why don't lo_creat, lo_create, lo_unlink, lo_import and lo_export
server side function's document appear in the "Chapter 9. Functions and
Operators" section? Shall I add them?

Because large objects have their very own chapter.

No, I don't think we should document them all twice.

Problem is, the chapter is under "Client Interfaces" which make
confuse users. I think it would be better to move under "The SQL
Language".
