CROSSTABS: Add tests for Pearson's R, and update documentation.

PSPP seems to calculate Pearson's R values correctly, despite the
documentation that said otherwise.  I don't have any remaining notes for
why the documentation said this, so I'm removing the claim that PSPP does
not calculate Pearson's R correctly.
