Docs: improve descriptions of ISO week-numbering date features.
Use the phraseology "ISO 8601 week-numbering year" in place of just"ISO year", and make related adjustments to other terminology.The point of this change is that it seems some people see "ISO year"and think "standard year", whereupon they're surprised when constructslike to_char(..., "IYYY-MM-DD") produce nonsensical results. Perhapshanging a few more adjectives on it will discourage them from jumpingto false conclusions. I put in an explicit warning against thatspecific usage, too, though the main point is to discourage peoplewho haven't read this far down the page.In passing fix some nearby markup and terminology inconsistencies.
