Improve documentation of pageinspect

This adds a section for heap-related functions.  These were previously
mixed with functions having a more general purpose, leading to
confusion.  While on it, add a query example for fsm_page_contents.

Backpatch down to 10, where b5e3942 introduced the subsections for
function types in pageinspect documentation.
