doc: Fix description about default behavior of recovery_target_timeline.

Browse Source 
The default value of recovery_target_timeline was changed in v12,
but the description about the default behavior of that was not updated.

was changed.

The default behavior of recovery is to recover along the same timeline
that was current when the base backup was taken. If you wish to recover
into some child timeline (that is, you want to return to some state that
was itself generated after a recovery attempt), you need to specify the
target timeline ID in <xref linkend="guc-recovery-target-timeline"/>. You cannot recover into
timelines that branched off earlier than the base backup.
The default behavior of recovery is to recover to the latest timeline found
in the archive. If you wish to recover to the timeline that was current
when the base backup was taken or into a specific child timeline (that

recovery attempt), you need to specify <literal>current</literal> or the
target timeline ID in <xref linkend="guc-recovery-target-timeline"/>. You
cannot recover into timelines that branched off earlier than the base backup.
