 Where is the man page for this? (Not the normal man fstab)

The fstab manpage refers you to the mount manpage. In there, it tells what
nearly all the options for all the various filesystems will do.

The options are filesystem-specific.  Try mount(8) and nfs(5) to see
what options are available for the filesystem you are mounting.
Skip the nfs page if you do't use nfs.

Oh... mount(8) means to run
$  man 8 mount
