Add doc entry for the new GUC paramenter enable_group_by_reordering

0452b461bc4 adds alternative orderings of group-by keys during the query
optimization. This new feature is controlled by the new GUC parameter
enable_group_by_reordering, which accidentally came without the documentation.
This commit adds the missing documentation for that GUC.
