doc: Remove reference to recovery params for divergence lookup in pg_rewind

The documentation of pg_rewind mentioned the use of restore_command and
primary_conninfo as options available at startup to fetch missing WAL
segments that could be used to find the point of divergence for the
rewind.  This is confusing because when finding the point of divergence
the target cluster is offline, so this option is not available.

Issue introduced by 878bd9a, so backpatch down to 9.6.  The
documentation of 13 and HEAD was already right as this sentence has been
changed by a7e8ece when introducing -c/--restore-target-wal.
