Fix documentation of to_char/to_timestamp TZ, tz, OF formatting patterns.
These are only supported in to_char, not in the other direction, but the documentation failed to mention that. Also, describe TZ/tz as printing the time zone "abbreviation", not "name", because what they print is elsewhere referred to that way. Per bug #14558.
