Docs - Update pg_hba example for secondary Geo node

Anton Smith requested to merge docs/geo-update-pg-hba-secondary into master

What does this MR do?

We don't currently have an example for how the pg_hba.conf should look like on the secondary, nor do we even mention anything about it.

This has been tested and is exactly how the Omnibus managed database sets it up, see /var/opt/gitlab/postgresql/data/pg_hba.conf on an Geo Secondary with a bundled PostgreSQL database if you need to confirm this.
