I don't really agree about noting the default target. That belongs in
the daemon.conf documentation, not in the cli syntax documentation. As
far as I can see, knowing the default target doesn't help the user when
he wants to change the log target at runtime with pacmd.

The meaning of the different targets, especially "auto", could be
explained somehow, however.

Thank you very much for doing patch review, btw! It's appreciated.
