Update documentation for indent-relative functions
* lisp/indent.el (indent-relative): Document what happens when there is no previous nonblank line. * doc/lispref/text.texi (Relative Indent): Document indent-relative-first-indent-point instead of obsolete indent-relative-maybe. Fix documentation of which argument from 'indent-relative' is used. Bug#34858

This command indents the current line like the previous nonblank line,
by calling @code{indent-relative} with @code{t} as the
-@var{unindented-ok} argument. The return value is unpredictable.

If the previous nonblank line has no indent points beyond the current
column, this command does nothing.
