Fix permissions explanations in CREATE DATABASE and CREATE SCHEMA docs.
These reference pages still claimed that you have to be superuser to create a database or schema owned by a different role. That was true before 8.1, but it was changed in commits aa1110624c08298393dfce996f7b21809d98d3fd and f91370cd2faf1fd35a1ac74d84652a85ed841919 to allow assignment of ownership to any role you are a member of. However, at the time we were thinking of that primarily as a change to the ALTER OWNER rules, so the need to touch these two CREATE ref pages got missed.
