Allow changing autovacuum_max_workers without restarting.
This commit introduces a new parameter named
autovacuum_worker_slots that controls how many autovacuum worker
slots to reserve during server startup. Modifying this new
parameter's value does require a server restart, but it should
typically be set to the upper bound of what you might realistically
need to set autovacuum_max_workers. With that new parameter in
place, autovacuum_max_workers can now be changed with a SIGHUP
(e.g., pg_ctl reload).
If autovacuum_max_workers is set higher than
autovacuum_worker_slots, a WARNING is emitted, and the server will
only start up to autovacuum_worker_slots workers at a given time.
If autovacuum_max_workers is set to a value less than the number of
currently-running autovacuum workers, the existing workers will
continue running, but no new workers will be started until the
number of running autovacuum workers drops below
autovacuum_max_workers.
