Slavi Pantaleev 534631c1e7 Document Synapse database restore pitfalls per the official backup guide
Add the two remaining hints from the official Synapse backup guide:

- never import a dump into a database that already has tables present
  (at best it errors, at worst it causes subtle inconsistencies)
- when restoring a backup older than the server's current state,
  truncate e2e_one_time_keys_json before starting Synapse, so used
  one-time keys are not re-issued (which causes decryption errors);
  our pg_dumpall-based backup commands include that table

Fixes #4004
