74c44a7178 doc: document "repmgr node service"
This was originally intended for internal use, but it's mentioned
several times in the documentation and is useful for diagnostic
purposes.

f8667c1aac doc: better explain where pg_bindir won't be applied
Basically any setting which can contain a user-defined script
*must* have the full path set, even if it's repmgr being executed.

We could potentially apply some heuristics to detect if the first
item in the setting is "repmgr" (or more precisely repmgrd's program
name), but this will require some careful thought and testing
that it works as intended.

63242e2277 doc: update documentation of "promote_command" and "service_promote_command"
The documentation implied it would override "promote_command", which is
not the case.

"promote_command" is used by repmgrd to execute "repmgr standby promote"
(either directly or via a custom script).

"service_promote_command" can be set to specify a package-level service
command to promote the local PostgreSQL instance from standby to primary,
e.g. Debian's pg_ctlcluster. If set, this will be executed by "repmgr standby promote".

Also update code comments to clarify usage.

Related to GitHub #473.
