Install infrastructure for shared-memory free space map. Doesn't actually
do anything yet, but it has the necessary connections to initialization
and so forth. Make some gestures towards allowing number of blocks in
a relation to be BlockNumber, ie, unsigned int, rather than signed int.
(I doubt I got all the places that are sloppy about it, yet.) On the
way, replace the hardwired NLOCKS_PER_XACT fudge factor with a GUC
variable.
