doc: Improve description of index vacuuming with GUCs

Browse Source 
Index vacuums may happen multiple times depending on the number of dead
tuples stored, as of maintenance_work_mem for a manual VACUUM.  For
autovacuum, this is controlled by autovacuum_work_mem instead, if set.
The documentation mentioned the former, but not the latter in the
context of autovacuum.
