Now that lz4 also supports backup compression, decompression, and more
future enhancements that can be done here, I think it is better to make
the --with-lz4 description more generic than adding specific details in
there.

Attached is the patch to remove the specifics related to WAL and TOAST
compression.

With everything that has been merged recently based on LZ4, it makes
sense to me to simplify things as you are suggesting.

install-windows.sgml includes the same description, so we'd better do
the same thing and simplify the paragraph of LZ4 there as well, no?

I have checked the docs for any other areas that could be changed, and
did not notice anything else, so applied. Thanks, Jeevan.
