Daniel Gustafsson f6ffbeda00 doc: Add example file for COPY
The paragraph for introducing INSERT and COPY discussed how a file
could be used for bulk loading with COPY, without actually showing
what the file would look like.  This adds a programlisting for the
file contents.

Backpatch to all supported branches since this example has lacked
the file contents since PostgreSQL 7.2.
