Correct documentation for searchrawtransactions

`searchrawtransactions` can return multiple transactions. Previously the documentation erroneously had return examples showing only a single tx for each case. 
  * The documentation previously presented the output for the `non-verbose` case as a single json string, instead of an array of json strings. 
  * Similarly, for the `verbose` mode, the documentation detailed the output as a single json object, instead of an array of json objects.

|Description|Returns raw data for transactions involving the passed address. Returned transactions are pulled from both the database, and transactions currently in the mempool. Transactions pulled from the mempool will have the `"confirmations"` field set to 0. Usage of this RPC requires the optional `--addrindex` flag to be activated, otherwise all responses will simply return with an error stating the address index has not yet been built up. Similarly, until the address index has caught up with the current best height, all requests will return an error response in order to avoid serving stale data.| |Description|Returns raw data for transactions involving the passed address.
