Correct docs about partitions and EXCLUDE constraints.

In version 17 we added support for cross-partition EXCLUDE
constraints, as long as they included all partition key columns and
compared them with equality (see 8c852ba9a4). I updated the docs for
exclusion constraints, but I missed that the docs for CREATE TABLE
still said that they were not supported. This commit fixes that.
