Subject: [PATCH] org-capture.el: Support all capture template target-file
 variants in Customize

* lisp/org-capture.el (`org-capture-templates'): Adjust the
  `org-capture-templates' defcustom template to support specifying the capture
  target file using either a literal pathname, a function, a variable or a
  form, as documented.  Previously the Customize UI supported specifying only a
  literal pathname.
  (org-capture-templates): Clarify the documentation for the 'function' method
  for setting up the capture target.

* doc/org.texi (Template elements): Clarify the 'function' method for setting up
  the capture target.
