This PR updates the documentation for geom_vline(), geom_hline(), and geom_abline() to clarify that these geoms can affect position scales due to their position aesthetics (xintercept, yintercept, slope, intercept).
This reflects the current behavior introduced when position aesthetics were consolidated (#3342), and avoids suggesting that these geoms never affect scales.
Closes #6768.
