Kaarel Moppel 9d7d4423e3 Docs: document the need for special configuration for symlinked pg_wal (#1818) ...

If an existing instance was configured with WAL residing outside of
PGDATA then currently a 'reinit' would lose such symlinks. So add some
bits of information on that to draw attention to this cornercase issue
and also add the --waldir option to the sample `postgresql.basebackup`
configuration sections to increase visibility.
