I am not aware of any documentation which describes the tags and attributes available in the job definition config.xml file. It seems like it would be difficult to maintain that type of documentation, since the allowed tags and their attributes are defined by the sum of the Jenkins core tags and attributes plus the tags and attributes allowed by all the plugins installed in that particular Jenkins instance.
