doc: Document reopen of output file via SIGHUP in pg_recvlogical.

When pg_recvlogical receives a SIGHUP signal, it closes the current
output file and reopens a new one. This is useful since it allows us to
rotate the output file by renaming the current file and sending a SIGHUP.

This behavior was previously undocumented. This commit adds
the missing documentation.

Back-patch to all supported versions.
