Doc: improve index entry for "median". We had an index entry for "median" attached to the percentile_cont function entry, which was pretty useless because a person following the link would never realize that that function was the one they were being hinted to use.
Instead, make the index entry point at the example in syntax-aggregates, and add a <seealso> link to "percentile". Also, since that example explicitly claims to be calculating the median, make it use percentile_cont not percentile_disc. This makes no difference in terms of the larger goals of that section, but so far as I can find, nearly everyone thinks that "median" means the continuous not discrete calculation. Per gripe from Steven Winfield. Back-patch to 9.4 where we introduced percentile_cont.
